Hello my beauties!!!!!!!!!!!! I am writing to let you know that, if you are not yet aware, Fine Lines is back and better than ever! (Well, it is back.) It will not be appearing exactly weekly, mostly likely, but certainly at least twice a month, with a few Shelf Pleasurings thrown in for good measure.

A FEW LINKS for your enjoyment and edification:

My latest column was on 'Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret.' I have absolutely no idea how I managed to not do this book in the entire time I wrote this column. Now I did it! Let me know what you think.

I am on FACEBOOK! Friend me! I do nothing there, but soon it will be a great place to learn about events and giveaways.

HarperCollins has given me a lovely Author Minisite. I haven't done anything on it, but I plan to soon! Seriously. Bookmark or sign up for those author tracker thingees if you want. No idea what they do, but what is life but one big sign-up you can have the satisfaction of eventually canceling? 

You can BUY THE BOOK on Amazon here or on Powell's here. I love to see what other books you buy! ("Build Your Own Underground Root Cellar"? Really? That must have been a nod to Janet Lunn's "The Root Cellar", I just know it.)

I am planning my tour, such as it is. Would you like me to visit your library? Your class? Your bookstore? Your book club? Your podcast emporium? A big party you would like to throw on Ellen Conford's behalf? Your...Twitter feed? Let me know now so I can try to make it happen.

You can always write me at shelfdiscovery@gmail.com (I still get jezziefinelines@gmail.com too.) 

Stay tuned...July 21 doth approacheth!

Love,

Lizzie

p.s. THAT IS MY COVER! HOW AWESOME IS IT! It fills me with delight.
