Happy New Year!
We're five days in to 2013 and already I can see that this year is going to be huge! My 17th birthday passed this Wednesday and I'm prepared to give everything to my book this year.
After much complications (and emails), it seems clear the path that Emerald Butterfly will be taking this year. I cannot release news just yet, but I promise you will receive it as soon as I am able to tell.
That being said, what are some of your New Year's Resolutions? I'm still pondering over my list but there's still time! A poll will be put up soon, so be sure to take the survey.

Upcoming Giveaway + Pinterest
Genius, really. Pinterest is like your good old-fashioned Tumblr or Instagram. You can upload or "pin" photos onto boards to proclaim your favorite foods, clothes, books, and more! You can find tons of clever sayings or adorable photos to "repin" or re-post on your own board. Or if you wish, you may just simply browse and "like" photos.
I have my own account as well as some fellow authors that I follow. Below are their links and mine, where not only can you get some inspiration, but you can connect visuals to my book Emerald Butterfly and many other great books out there:
My Pinterest: http://pinterest.com/amandanuri/
Sarah J Maas (author of Throne of Glass): http://pinterest.com/sarahjmaas/
Sarah Dessen: http://pinterest.com/dessensarah/
James Patterson: http://pinterest.com/jamespatterson1/
The giveaway details will be out soon, most likely by the end of the month on how to enter the Pinterest Giveaway.
Also more news on Emerald Butterfly. The novel is awaiting acceptance from two literary agents and a publisher from previous meetings at the Writer's Digest Conference. If any of you are debating if the conference is worth investing your time and money in, I would say, "YES" and highly suggest attending. It's the opportunity of a lifetime and a great way to learn many things about the industry from the experts themselves.
Stay creative & keep writing!

Nevermore
Nevermore by James Patterson is the final installment of the Maximum Ride series.
I began reading the Maximum Ride series when I was 14 and have grown up these past two years with Max like a best friend. I longed to be a part of her cause, fight by her side, and risk my life in her endless adventures. 98% avian, 2% kid Maximum Ride is the tough, kick-butt heroine in this series which consists of a total of eight books.
Here is the quick synopsis for Nevermore:
One last chance...
For Max, Fang, Angel, Iggy, Nudge, and Gazzy.
Before it all ends.
Are you ready for the final chapter? Are you ready for the ultimate flight? Because THIS IS IT. One last incredible, explosive adventure with an astonishing ending that no one could have seen coming.
Though, I wasn't a fan of Max's choice of winged boy (you can read my full response on Goodreads), it was a great ending to the series. Enjoy!
