Andrea Cremer: Road Trip Edition

Gorgeous and talented.. Andrea Cremer!

Folks, have we got a show for you today. Don't always just love how comedians say that? Well, I'm no comedian, but seriously, we sot down with one fabulous ROCKSTAR author on our first "Road Trip" edition of 2012. It's New York Times Bestselling author ANDREA CREMER!

This is our second time chatting with Ms. Cremer. We got to meet her last summer at the book launch for Wolfsbane along with Kiersten White and Stephanie Perkins. When we heard she was going to be back in Southern California, we jumped at the chance to speak with her again. This time, we opened up the floor to your questions and she had some fun answers for you guys. We also had an extra special surprise guest who has known Andrea his entire life. Dun dun dun! What juicy secrets will he reveal? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out!

Well, that's all for now, but stay tuned because we have some awesome interviews (and giveaways) coming up. ;o) To keep in the know, be sure to follow us on Twitter at @AuthorsROCK.

Road Trip Edition Podcast with Kiersten White, Andrea Cremer and Stephanie Perkins

We are so excited to share this Road Trip Edition podcast with you. Allison and I were lucky enough to head down to the Barnes & Noble in Oceanside to attend the launch party of Kiersten White's Supernaturally and Andrea Cremer's Wolfsbane. As if that wasn't cool enough already, Stephanie Perkins was also there signing her lovely romance, Anna and the French Kiss. We chatted about their books, fan crushes (go Team Shay! hehehe), French food, how their characters would react if they were to meet, and more. After the interview, we also went out into the crowd to meet some of their fans. So fun! Well that's enough blabbering from me... let's get to the show!
