The Beta's got a YA blog!! Whoot!

That's right!

Another hiatus break to bring you more news about the beta. (I wonder how Sarah feels about being call the "the beta" .... almost sounds like an inanimate object. Funny. Maybe I should ask her. She's a doctor, you know.)

Er, back on subject! My attention span is getting shorter by the day. LoL. Here we go:

Sarah Fine, recently agented YA writer, has fired up her blog--ready to take over the world!

Okay, maybe not the world, but close enough. LoL.

Seriously though, she created a blog to discuss YA, psychology style. Did I mention she was a psychologist? So, yeah ... smart and all that jazz. ;-)

Her blog shall discuss all the things that makes YA intriguing and fantastic! Angst! Turmoil! Brain function! All from a professional and writer pov.

Check out her blog here.

Follow and become her newest stalker! She'll have loads of fun and cool stuff to talk about. Stop by today! RIGHT HERE!!!!

Ooohhh ... she's on Twitter now, too!! Follow her there! @finesarah is were you will find her. And as soon as she gives me a picture, I shall give you all a face!  ;-)
