Thursday Ramblings - February 10, 2011

Writing Great Books for Young Adults: Everything You Need to Know, from Crafting the Idea to Landing a Publishing Deal

I spent the majority of the last few days updating/redesigning my homepage/website at http://www.billyburgess.webs.com/. It is still a work in process, but I would like to have some feedback on it.

Winter's BoneI bought The Iron King, and The Iron Daughter by Julie Kagawa last weekend. I will look for The Iron Queen next time I go shopping.

I bought the DVDs Winter's Bone, and Let Me In, but I haven't had time to watch them yet.
