I just read that you save pics of everything – I do that too… it gets cumbersome, doesn’t it?? So I just requested an invite to Pinterest (it’s still in beta so you have to be “invited”) – have you tried it??
Katy, I was wondering if you were interested in having a young adult author visit your blog for one day in September. I can give you more details if you send me an email.
