Jane Kramer Rightly Asked in That Article ââåwhose Art Is It?ã¢ââ

So, like I mentioned yesterday, I've officially been doing this whole "author" thing for a year now. And I beloved that the third and terminal full-length book in the Losing It series s releasing most simultaneously with this anniversary.

It feels like I've come full circumvolve. This series is catastrophe, and a new one is beginning.

So, I figured we should celebrate!

And when my publicist and I sat down to talk about what we wanted to practise to commemorate the occasion, the theme seemed obvious.

FIRSTS.

This is, later all, the cease of the first yr containing my first series, which opened with a book near first times, followed by a book virtually two people confronting their demons for the starting time time, and catastrophe with Kelsey's commencement time out on her own.

And so here's what you need to know:

What you can win: A signed fix of LOSING IT, FAKING It, and FINDING IT. And I'll allow you choose whether you adopt the US or the Britain ready, that way you can get the ones that aren't readily bachelor wherever you lot live. 🙂 AND…. the winner will too receive something very special, of which there are but two. I accept one, and you will go the other. That would be… Hamlet the demon cat.

Stuffed, of form. (Doesn't he look and so stinking angry? Adorable). Starting with my terminal signing in Seattle, I adopted a stuffed version of Village, complete with an "Awkward people demand dearest, also" bracelet for a collar. I bought one for me to have to signings, and some other to giveaway. Hither's your chance to accept a Hamlet of your very own (including his bracelet neckband). And if I can figure out a fashion to sign him, I volition. 🙂

How to win: Earn one entry for the usual stuff– Tweeting, Liking, Following. Earn Ten entries by telling us about ane of your awkward or funny FIRSTS in the comments. You lot tin tell up to four stories (each in a divide comment) for a total of twoscore entries.

I realize non anybody is fix and willing to bust out stories of their awkward showtime times (nor does everyone take an awkward first time… lucky bastards). So, that's why all kinds of firsts are on the table. Y'all tin can tell usa virtually a starting time buss, first date, first fourth dimension meeting the parents, commencement fourth dimension making a colossal fool out of yourself in whatever romantic capacity. Really, we're flexible. We simply want to celebrate with some laughs.

Then, to give you an example, I'll spill one of my firsts!

FIRST SERIOUS Human relationship

I'd been in a few relationships before, but this is the first ane I actually counted. The others had either been as well short or not that serious. This guy was different though. He was older, and it went beyond the usual puppy honey of my middle schoolhouse days. (He was actually my kickoff french kiss, as well, which occurred in my bedroom with a friend of ours playing video games a few feet away. My head was in his lap, and he leaned over me and gave me a spiderman-esque upside down kiss, which was not nearly every bit seamless as information technology appears in the movie. My olfactory organ was shoved upwardly against his chin, and I retrieve thinking just I would manage to have my first kiss upside-down).

Anyway, long story short: About three weeks into this new and different relationship, he showed up to school with a stuffed animal and chocolates. I asked him what it was for, and he said our one calendar month anniversary. Now, I knew positively that it was not our one month anniversary. In fact, he was a total ten days off. I was caput-over-heels, and had been counting the days. Merely the guy was merely so cute and sweet that I agreed and didn't say annihilation. He looked all hurt because he thought I had forgotten (when really, he was just bad at math).

We proceeded to celebrate the wrong anniversary for the entirety of our relationship. And to brand it worse, he was 1 of those overly sweet guys that wanted to celebrate our anniversary every. unmarried. calendar month. And each time, information technology killed me. I was a bit of a commitment-phobe even at that age, then combine that with my know-it-all-hermione-granger-wannabe personality, and information technology was practically torture. To this day, I'm so weird about anniversaries.

I can't remember if I actually ever told him either. Wherever he is, permit'due south all hope he's not working any job that requires he exist adept with numbers. 🙂

Well, there you lot get! So tell us about your firsts! Give me your awkward, weird, and humiliating stories, and I shall give you my unfettered adoration (just don't wait me to gloat anniversaries).

Warning: This giveway is just lasts until release 24-hour interval! So, brand certain you enter now!
