Dear dearest Fine Lines readers and Shelf Discovery fans,


I'm sitting here working on pieces on New Moon, The Lovely Bones, and Push's transition from page to screen, as well as dissecting the particulars of Elizabeth Gilbert's new memoir Committed, and I was suddenly overcome by a semi-procrastinatory but genuine RUSH of gratefulness to you all. I don't know that in the years of Fine Lines or since I've been able to adequately thank you for your wonderful comments, emails and assorted contributions to the uncovering of this miraculous period of now-not-forgotten literature.

Your memories, questions, cover scans, and CORRECTIONS (I know! Let's blame copyeditors! Though it was pretty much all me!) about these works and MY transition from screen to page have meant more to me than I can say.

Happy holidays! And let's raise a tattered copy to the authors we love,

PSSSSSSSSSST! SEE MY P.S. FOR SOME TANGIBLE GOODIES.

TANGIBLE GOODY P.S. It is impossible to send presents to you all, but as thanks of a sort, I'd like to give away 5 free copies of Shelf Discovery to you people. All you have to do is tell me about the young adult work that means the most to you. It can be in any form: a sentence, a review, an essay, a poem, an MP3 or video clip. Feel free to tell me the funny story of your attempt to churn butter, or write a wish list of recipes you'd like to cook from fave YA books. It's all you!

I will select THE BEST for free copies of Shelf Discovery, and I will also feature ALL submissions on my blog and Facebook (unless requested not to). 

You can submit as:

  • Comment on this blog link
  • Post on my Facebook page
  • Email to shelfdiscovery@gmail.com
  • Twitter comment @lizzieskurnick (for post-post-modernist 2.0'ers)
  • GOOGLE VOICE CALL! (You must go to my blog link to do this. I have no idea if it will work, so you might want to double-up as insurance.)

Deadline is January 1st

SHARE THE LINK AND SPREAD THE WORD with this link: http://bit.ly/6z9RH3

Cannot wait to hear from you!
