Hey! I just posted your book trailer on my profile. I'll be posting various trailers of books I've read for my students all summer. I want them to read and a little extra promo for my writer buddies is fun too!
Oh it was so AWESOME to meet you in person. LOL, It was a strange event..LOL
I'm telling you, when I heard your name, I was like, "Crissa!" LOL. Your book sounds so interesting. I've always been fascinated by OCD, and the various forms in which is shows itself. I think it's amazing you chose to write about a topic so many can really relate to. It speaks volumes about you as a person.
Thanks so much for going Saturday:) I've been telling everyone I got to meet you:)
