Mara Amitra Dyer x Noah Elliot Simon Shaw

[funnybookquotez]

Mara: Asscrown.

Noah: Don’t you mean ‘assclown?’

Mara: No. I mean asscrown. The crown on top of the asshat that covers that asshole of the assclown. The very zenith in the hierarchy of asses.

Noah: I guess you nailed me then.

[realmaradyer]

Mara thinking : not yet.

[cutepieceofpoop]

Noah thinking : but you will soon, I hope

With just three weeks left until The Becoming of Noah Shaw comes out, I couldn’t think of a better way to count down than to celebrate by posting the art you guys created for the ARC contest, and matching it to sentences from The Shaw Confessions–every day for the next three weeks.*

I had two projects I was anxious to write in 2014–TSC, and SE (Something Else)**. I ended up choosing to write TSC first, in no small part because of you, and I can’t wait to be able to share it with you. Thank you, always, for inspiring me every day-with your art, your messages, and your words. I hope my words can inspire you too.

*Notice how I said ‘sentences from The Shaw Confessions?’ That’s because I’ll be sneaking in snippets from TSC II along with the Mara Dyer/Noah Shaw fan art. 

**If you spy a picture with a caption on Instagram (or maybe here) that doesn’t seem to fit quite in with the Dyer/Shaw misfits…it might be a Hint. If you want to follow along, here’s how to play: https://www.instagram.com/michellehodkin/

Poppies for Noah

“You should’ve seen the way he was looking at you while you were out.” I smiled a little. “How?” “Like you’re the ocean and he’s desperate to drown.”

“There’s something wrong with me, Noah. Fix it.“ Noah’s expression broke my heart as he brushed my hair from my face, and skimmed the line of my neck. ”I can’t“ ”Why not?“ I asked, my voice threatening to crack. ”Because,“ he said, ”You’re not broken.”

“You were planned, Noah. Engineered.“ Noah practically radiated frustration.

"For what?" 

"To be the hero,” David said, looking at Noah like he was his greatest disappointment. “To slay the dragon. But you fell in love with it instead.”

Meeting Michelle Hodkin/Fan Art.

So on November 12th, Michelle will be in San Diego, doing a signing. I will be there, and was thinking of making a scrapbook of fan-art, letters, etc. for her.

So if this is something that interests you, please come to my submit box and submit whatever it is you’d like to share with her. Or if it’s a previous post you’ve made, tag me in it and let me know you want me to use it.

I’ll be printing out these things on regular paper (I’ll try to get some fancy paper), but if you’d like Michelle to have an actual physical copy of your submission, please DM on any of my platforms and we can arrange a mailing set up. Please also include a media platform or name if you’d like for Michelle to see any of those.

You can tag me/reach me on here, Twitter (@retributionmara) Or IG (@B3tweenthepage). You can also feel free to email me, just ask for an email.

WITH SUBMISSIONS, please let me know that it’s for the scrapbook so I don’t delete it (I closed my submit box previously because I was getting lots of weird stuff).

If you make songs or videos, and would like to give those to her, please let me know. I can burn CD’s and DVD’s (with the original creators permission. So if you make fan videos with content that is not yours, I can make a link to it, but I will not burn it onto a physical drive for copyright reasons. If the work is 100% yours, I will gladly do it.)

If you wish to remain anonymous, please let me know. No one but Michelle (and by default me, but I promise my eyes will not roam) will read/see that part of your submission.

You can SUBMIT ANYTHING. If it’s a weird media form, we can 100% work something out.

Any other questions, feel free to ask. I’m so excited to do this!!

(3/9) THE RETRIBUTION OF MARA DYER by Michelle Hodkin

“The villain is the hero of her own story. No one thinks they’re a bad person. Everyone has reasons for what they do.”

[nightfallgoddess]

Look The Mara Dyer trilogy is so underrated. A WOC (Indian descent) who deals with PTSD, anxiety, and fights back against her abuser. Noah Shaw, a character that deals with depression, self hate, and suicide attempts. Also, great side characters like, Jamie Roth who is a Black Jewish bisexual man who will literally have you in stitches at every single line he has. Mara’s Indian background is a huge part of the plot. She is one of the most morally grey female protagonists I’ve encountered in YA and has such an interesting story with gorgeous writing w/ psychological thriller twists. The books honestly have one of the best characterizations of PTSD I’ve seen in a YA series.

If I were to live a thousand years, I would belong to you for all of them. If I were to live a thousand lives, I would want to make you mine in each one.
