It's our 75th Birthday this year, so we're filming our editors talking
about life at Penguin Books. In Part 4 of this series,
we asked our Twitter followers if they could 'ask an editor one
question, what would it be?' and we got a fantastic response. Here's the second part of our Editors answering YOUR questions. Enjoy!

YAY Mandy! Speaking of headshot photos, yours is quite glam and gorgey, Ms. Mandy. Flip flops and book will be headed your way once I have the info. And thank you to everyone who entered and wrote such kind comments. I'll be having more contests this month so check my blog and stay tuned! HUGE hugs to Jessica for her fun, fab interview questions and for holding the contest. Mwah. :) debbie PS - I have no clue on the clue game, Jessica. I am not good at suspense, surprises or guessing games. I read the last page of every mystery novel before I've even read the beginning.

Thanks so much for coming, Debbie! You were a fantastic guest and please consider coming back for SWIMMING WITH SHARKS. :) *Hugs*
The winner of the Shana Norris giveaway is…Miss Erin! Yay! Erin, you’ve got 48 hours to e-mail me your name and address at jessica [at] jessicaburkhart [dot] com. Congrats!
Today’s my day to post at Teen Fiction Café, so I wanted to cross-post my entry. Check out the video! I shot it at a lake near my house and had to dodge killer bumblebees, a rambunctious yellow lab puppy and an angry goose. You can’t see, but behind me minnows and two painted turtles were watching. :)
The next blog video will go up on April 1 and check back soon for an exciting update on TAKE THE REINS!

Adorable, Jess! What a great idea...and you seem so calm, cool and collected here. Can't wait to see more videos. Should be a big help to all us debut novelists. :)

Hi Jessica. I'm so glad you are doing these video blogs. I'm going through the exact same thing (debut author thing) and I am eager to watch another author as she travels down a similar path.
Jessica Burkhart said, on 3/30/2008 11:43:00 AM
Thanks, Chris. I'm hoping it connects all of us in our soon-to-be debut status. It's nice to know you're not the only one out there. :)
Just a quick note--tomorrow, I've got author of SOMETHING TO BLOG ABOUT Shana Norris! Shana is generously giving away one signed copy of SOMETHING to a lucky commenter. So, come back tomorrow and leave a note to be entered in the drawing.
I'm swamped right now with edits and creating a new video. :) They're so much fun. I had been wanting to do videos for months, but I finally did one last week. It has just over 600 views, so that's exciting. A new video will go up on Monday, so check back for that!

If you say the phrase, "Do not pass go!", 9 out of 10 individuals will know what you're referring to. Actually, I just made up that statistic, but with the number of spin-off editions of the original Monopoly board game, children of all ages will most likely come across one or more versions in their lifetime.
Bookopoly is about the only version that I can see myself wanting to play (aside from the Gourmet editions).
Instead of the usual properties, you buy, sell, and trade classic works of literature. Collect bookstores and trade them for libraries!
