i was in the shower

when it arrived. The ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) for Beautiful Creatures. My husband, Alex, brought the package into the bathroom and I stuck my head out of the shower while he and my kids opened it.

And I swear, nothing could have prepared me for seeing it. Our actual book. Not our book on the computer, or our book printed out on copy paper from Staples, or even the first pass pages from Little, Brown. But an actual book,with an unbelievable looking cover and our names on the front (and the spine).

Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl

I can't show you what it looks like because, at this point, we've been sworn to total secrecy, but I can show you this.

The package it came in.

I should go back to that earlier post, "what i believe in," and I should add: Anything is possible. Because even though it's cheesy, today it's true.
