| Description: | I'm a YA/Juvenile Fantasy writer, represented by Marietta Zacker of the Nancy Gallt Literary Agency, who just sold my first book, NIGHTSHADE CITY, to Holiday House Books! I live in Chicagoland with my fantastic and super handsome husband, Eric, and our two incredible kids, who are more adorable than all four Teletubbies holding puppies and dancing the Fox Trot. I love going to the movies, eating Chinese takeout (but only with chopsticks) and of course reading and writing my heart out! I love stories that make me smile when I read the ending, but leave me sad that I have no more to read. That's how I know I've read a great book! |

What I'm Thankful For and New Teaser from Academy for Dead Girls!
Well, it's been a crazy year for me! I have lots to be thankful for. My family of course ranks number one. I am so lucky to have such a supportive hub, who didn't go insane during the whole road to publishing process! I'm so thankful for my happy, healthy, hilarious little ones, Vincent (6) and Nomi (almost 2). Without them, life would not be as sweet. I'm super thankful to my agent, Marietta Zacker. She is a wonderful person and truly cares about her clients. She never makes me feel like I'm alone and she puts up with my 'crazy needy writer syndrome'!

Teaser Tuesday! Being Sick Has It's Perks!
So, I've been under the weather. Every November, without fail, I fall ill from something or other! Saturday night I had a fever, something around 102. Surprisingly, that night, I came up with an idea for my next novel. So I suppose being sick has it's advantages! I'm feeling much better today, so I wanted to post a teaser of my new endeavor. And yes, I wrote this while sick, so I've decided if you don't like it you have to blame the flu, not me! The title of this manuscript is, MISS LILY WHITE'S ACADEMY FOR WAYWARD DEAD GIRLS. Need I say more?Enjoy!xoxo -- Hilary
