Dies Irae Blog Tour: Embracing the Shadow

Dies Irae Blog Tour: Embracing the Shadow

By LK Gardner-Griffie on February 2, 2012

I’m excited to host Christine Fonseca today on her tour for the release of her novella Dies Irae. I remember having dinner with Christine a while back and we talked about some of our projects. And when she spoke about the story, both Dies Irae and her upcoming book Lacrimosa, which are a part of her Requiem Series, her face lit up.

Book Review: Molly Hacker Is Too Picky! by Lisette Brodey

Book Review: Molly Hacker Is Too Picky! by Lisette Brodey

By LK Gardner-Griffie on January 15, 2012

I loved this book. I tried to think of another way to start this review, but that is the overwhelming thing that comes to mind. Reading Molly Hacker Is Too Picky! is like getting together with an old friend you haven’t seen for a while and catching up on all that has happened in her life during the past year.

Book Review: Facing Demons by Ashley Sanders

Book Review: Facing Demons by Ashley Sanders

By LK Gardner-Griffie on January 15, 2012

Somewhere during the tumultuous years we call being a teenager, I read a book called Voices that impacted me strongly at the time and stuck with me for many years. The concept of the book was the background and letters of teens who committed suicide, and was based on non-fiction cases.

Book Review: Twenty-Eight and a Half Wishes by Denise Grover Swank

Book Review: Twenty-Eight and a Half Wishes by Denise Grover Swank

By LK Gardner-Griffie on January 14, 2012

I think I’ve said this before, but I love mysteries. I cut my reading teeth on the cozies of Agatha Christie — I have read every single one more times than I or anyone else can count — and it didn’t stop there.

By LK Gardner-Griffie on January 13, 2012

I woke up in a somewhat reflective mood this morning and as my mind rambled through various reflections, I stopped when I came to one of the authors I have known for a few years, PJ Cowan.

Tattered Cover Reveal

By LK Gardner-Griffie on November 7, 2011

I am very excited to have a cover for the third book in the Misfit McCabe series, Tattered, for a couple of reasons. The first reason is that I love the cover. And secondly, it means the release of Tattered can’t be far behind.

It Gets Better — Authors and Illustrators Unite

It Gets Better — Authors and Illustrators Unite

By LK Gardner-Griffie on June 26, 2011

One common theme that runs through the stories I write is that of bullying. Every story idea comes equipped with a bully and I think the reason is that bullying happens every day. I’ve never understood the mentality of a bully…why do they see the need to tear down others?

Intriguing – Pottermore

Intriguing – Pottermore

By LK Gardner-Griffie on June 23, 2011

JK Rowling leads the way to the interactive reading experience with Pottermore. I have long had a deep respect for Rowling and her abilities. She transcends author because of the long-abiding enthusiasm of her fans and has achieved icon level.

Writing Challenges

Writing Challenges

By LK Gardner-Griffie on March 8, 2011

Sometimes writing a particular story gives us challenges. What am I saying? In every story I’ve ever written, I’ve faced one challenge or another on the way to completion. This is a good thing. With each challenge, I learn something in getting over the hurdle.
