In Your Room: February 2010

http://jordannafraiberg.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

February 18, 2010. I love book bloggers. I've been a terrible blogger. I'm sorry. Life has gotten in the way to the extent that my internet blackout has gone on much longer than I anticipated. Well, here's the main reason why: I'm pregnant and we're having a little girl this July! To that end, I just received a lovely review from YA Book Nuts. A blog run by Lori and Melissa, two librarians from Nebraska who are avid YA fans. The review made my day. You can read it here. And here's an excerpt:. What made ...

In Your Room: September 2011

http://jordannafraiberg.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html

September 20, 2011. Of pics of her I have stored in iphoto (note: practically every night, my husband and I review the latest pics and videos of E as soon as she goes to sleep. maybe it's a way to hold on to her a little longer, or to transition to the nest part of our evening as a couple. a couple with a dog. that's when Rocky really gets his cuddle on). And you're reminded why you wrote this book in the first place. You're reminded why you call yourself a writer. Links to this post. Read Up, Greenville.

In Your Room: August 2009

http://jordannafraiberg.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html

August 13, 2009. Ok, peeps. I just saw this video that's been sitting in my inbox for weeks and I had to share. There's something so beautiful and inspiring about its simplicity. Not to mention, I do love this song. But wait, I just realized I don't actually *know how* to post a video, so for the curious, here's a link. Links to this post. I can taste it! But once it passes, you know it's gone. And you know you're back. So welcome back, me! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Subscribe To Jor...

In Your Room: Julie & Julia & me

http://jordannafraiberg.blogspot.com/2009/11/julie-julia-me.html

November 21, 2009. Julie and Julia and me. I can't believe it, and am so honored to have been chosen to be the guest speaker this year. I'm in pretty great company, as my predecessors are the amazing YA authors Libba Bray, Lauren Myracle, Sarah Mylnowski and Robin Friedman. So, if you live in Montreal and plan on being there, please come and say hello! I think it was just one of those movies that hit the right note at the right time. And what better way to share my thoughts, than to blog about it. HOTEL ...

In Your Room: June 2009

http://jordannafraiberg.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html

June 29, 2009. For the past few hours, I've been having a frustrating time trying to wrangle what should be a few simple paragraphs at the end of a chapter. I have the ideal writing environment. No distractions. I haven't been procrastinating, for once. But let's just say it hasn't been flowing. So, after an internet search to find comforting tales of other writers in my position, I found this quote, and bingo, it nails my problem:. Hooray. So with that nugget, I'm going to call it a night. June 25, 2009.

In Your Room: October 2009

http://jordannafraiberg.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html

October 25, 2009. I just got back from a beautiful hike in the Hollywood Hills with my trusty companion, Rocky. I usually take a spinning/pilates class on Sunday mornings, but today I felt the tug to be outside. And I'm glad I listened. It's a perfect clear, blue, Fall day, with temps cool enough for the Big Sweets to make it even further up than we normally go. Here's Rocky, taking a forced break so I could snap this pic. Back on the go, cresting the first view. Taking a break, to take in the view.

In Your Room: November 2009

http://jordannafraiberg.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html

November 29, 2009. So long for now FB &Twitter. As of today, I'm taking a break from Facebook and Twitter until 2010. I'm doing it so that I can spend more time focusing on the things I need to focus on over the next month or two (like writing! One of my favorite YA authors, was doing it, it inspired me to go for it. And you know what? It's only been, like an hour, but I already feel freer in a way. But don't worry, I will be back. Lastly, I want to share this. Happy post-Thanksgiving, everyone! I can't ...

In Your Room: January 2009

http://jordannafraiberg.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html

January 14, 2009. Elegy for a Squirrel. Greetings from beautiful Ojai. After I quit my other career to focus on writing full time, I felt so liberated just staying home all day, making my own schedule, writing, working out, seeing friends when I wanted, on my terms. And did I mention how amazing it's been to have Rocky by my side ALL DAY LONG? This is what the view looks like:. And this brings me to the squirrel. His tail whipping from one side to the other. Further along my drive into town, I drove past...
