Hi! Are you going to be at “The Word on the Street” all weekend long, or only on the Sunday?
Only on Sunday! I get back from the US on the Saturday.
Do you have a sequel for Seraphina on the way?
I do indeed! It’s due to come out in 2013.
Hi there – my daughter just finished reading Seraphina, and wants quite badly to know when the sequel is due! The last time she had a reaction like this to a book was reading Rick Riordan’s work, so I think you’ve got a winner on your hands. I can’t wait to read it myself!
wow I’m 12 now and I too used to love rick riordans work too. ive just finished Seraphina and I am in love with it
I can’t wait to read the sequel for Seraphina!!! Will there be any book-signing at The Word on the Street?
I think so! I do a fifteen-minute reading, and then I believe I head over to the book-signing area after that.
Will you pretty please come to Montana someday?
Aw! I would really love to!
Come to south Carolina we like your books here
I know you really want to come to DC! Steve and I would be really excited đŸ™‚
I absolutely love your book “Seraphina” and look forward to your book signing in Santa Monica.
Very much enjoyed Seraphina and am eagerly waiting for the sequel. I hope you can make a book signing in Little Rock sometime soon.
I need to find a way to get down south, indeed!
:O wow, you are going to be at Wnpl library? That is amazing! Can’t wait to see you!
Hey, thanks for coming!
Hey don’t forget your fans in your own country! Can you please come to Southern Ontario sometime?
Any chance of you coming to the UK??
I know I would want you to come to the UK too
Will you please come to Politics and Prose Bookstore in Washington, DC? We love you here!
I’m putting it on my wish-list!
I wish you would come to Iowa City. đŸ™‚
Did you ever thought to come in italy?
I would like to see you đŸ™‚ … I love your book Seraphina, I’ m waiting for the sequel!!
When do you pubblicate the sequel of Seraphina? At the end or at the start of 2013?
Unfortunately, it’s looking like early 2014 at this point. And I would LOVE to come to Italy. It’s a personal goal of mine, and has been for a long time. I really love antiquities and Renaissance art!
Thank you, but remember Padua the city with one of the bigger squares in the world!!!! And because that’s where I live…. đŸ˜‰
I absolutely loved Seraphina! I can’t wait for the sequel. I couldn’t put the book down and was so sad when it ended. You should try to visit here in Boston at some point!
Are the dates posted for 2012 or 2013?
Do you visit schools? Our students would love to have you come.
You should come to Scotland for the Book Festival (:
I loved the book seraphina. When are you doing your next book?
You have to tell what it’s called! witch month in 2013? I’m search so hard I’m looking up things in foreign languages!
sorry! witch month in 2014
Is there any way to contact you? I would love to get a bookplate for my copy of Seraphina since I don’t live in the States and won’t be able to see you? The books were great! Also, do you think you would ever be able to come to Toronto for a book signing?
Hi, I’m from the UK and just finished reading Seraphina and loved it! I was wondering if you’re going to come to the UK (preferably London) to do book signings. Also when will the next book be coming out in the UK? I can’t wait to read more and I hope I don’t have to wait long!
Many thanks,
Erin
Please come to Toronto! đŸ™‚
I cannot wait until the sequel to Seraphina! I adore the way you write! Please do a booksigning in Huntington,WV or somewhere close to there. You are so talented!
I just finished reading your book at my school library and I was blown away! I hope that someday you can come to a book signing or con of some sort in Maryland :)!
New Jersey here I absolutely loved your book!! I take quotes from books that I liked and you had at least 3 pages I had to force myself not to write your whole book of goodness!! I cannot wait for the sequel you should promote it when its time to published so the whole world knows!! And i have read Eragon so chris was right to love your book
Hi Seraphina is by far one of my favorite books, I have listened to the audiobook probably 6+ times and was wandering if you plan to come to the US any time soon?
Rachel:
I am a Teacher-Librarian in Surrey BC – Loved your book.
Do you ever do school visits?
Are you going to go anywhere this year? And once Seraphina’s sequel comes out, could you come to Springfield, Illinois? My friends and I would love to meet you. (One of them is reading Seraphina now).
Hello, Rachel, do you ever speak to school groups about your craft? If so, how might I contact you or your agent about arranging a visit? Thank you, Christine
COME TO ENGLAND!!
I started following you on Twitter after I finished Seraphina. So excited there is now a sequel! Congrats. PS Come to NC. It hardly ever snows. We promise vats of tea and southern hospitality.
If you’re going to write such an amazingly interesting book to catch our attention, you need to get that sequel written so I don’t go nuts wondering what happens next!
Could you please consider coming to Edmonton, Alberta, CA? I would be thrilled to have my book signed. If you would even consider it I would be happy. đŸ™‚
I would love to come to Edmonton. The closest I’ve been so far is Calgary.
Hi I’m a huge fan and have read your book many many times. Are you planning to come any wear near ohio?
Hi atree you planning on touring the US with your new book?
I am VERY excited to hear that you’ll be visiting Toronto! Seraphina has been a favourite book of mine for quite some while, and I’m very, VERY excited to see how the rest of the story unfolds! Thank you for sharing it. đŸ™‚
Detroit! Can’t wait. Update us CONSTANTLY on news about your visit to Detroit. Detroit Detroit Detroit!
I had an inkling there might be one or two people who remember me out that-a-way.
Are there no plans to visit the east coast? It would be stunning if you did though, everywhere on the list is a long ways away from Boston. So excited for March!
Unfortunately, Philly is as close as I’m coming on this particular tour. I would love to get out to Boston sometime, but time and funds are both an issue.
Aww! One day I’ll get my books signed! I will be dressed as a large dragon. Preferably purple and of the fire breathing variety. Thanks for responding!
I just read that you’ll be in Toronto in 2 days! Do you know whether or not the event is public, or the location?
Thank you!
Noooo! I just finished Seraphina and immediately decided to visit your website… only to discover you were coming down to Arizona, crossing over to Texas, and yet somehow skipping New Mexico! You should somehow finagle a rest stop in New Mexico…
Hi, I loved Seraphina and was wondering if you have any plans to come o the UK? Thanks!
Hey there Rachel… We Librarians over here at the Scott County Public Library WOULD LOVE TO SHOW YOU SOME LOVE AND HOST A BOOK Talk and signing with our kids and families when you next COME BACK HOME to Kentucky! We are 7 miles from Joseph Beth Bookstore! PLEASE PLEASE contact us and keep us in mind next time!!! Thank you!
Will your March 20 Toronto Public Library event be a book signing? Very excited to see you’re coming back to Toronto!
I’m under the impression that Bakka Phoenix will be selling books, in which case I could sign them, but let me double check!
Thanks! I’ve spoken to the library and they’ve said if books are for sale there’s usually a book signing, but it depends on what the publisher wants to do.
My sister and I love your book! Come and do a reading in New York City!
Hi Rachel,
Holland MS is VERY excited for your visit on Monday, March 16th. We would love to take you out to lunch after the presentations. What kind of food do you like?
Barbara T
Aw thanks! I eat everything, seriously, so any place you know that’s good would be perfect. đŸ™‚
Hey, we were wondering if you’ll be signing books at all your appearances (cough, cough, particularly Toronto). Thanks a bunch!
~huge (and totally not creepy) fans of yours
As far as I know, I will be!
Thank you!
And (because we commented during class computer time) we have another question, if you don’t mind answering it. Will you also be signing copies of Seraphina along with Shadow Scale? Or is it dependent on the number of people in the crowd?
Thanks!
Anything else going on in Houston around Teen Book Con?
Ms Hartman – I am interested in purchasing signed (and personalized if possible) copies of your 2 books, but cannot determine if that is possible with your upcoming appearances not being on the east coast. Is this possible? Any help or information you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your consideration. MRM
Hi! You signed my copy of Shadow Scale at the Emerald City Comicon, and I would like to say thank you. I’ve always loved fantasy and sci-fi (I’ve read almost all of Tolkien’s works, and my bookshelves are home to a plethora of fantastical tales), and your books have inspired me quite a bit. I am an aspiring writer myself, and I really like your style. You are one if my favorite authors, and your writing inspires me in my own work. Also, I think you have a fantastic taste in music! I would’ve said all this when you signed my book, but my vocal cords weren’t exactly functioning (honestly, meeting you was the high point of my day at comicon). Thank you so much!
