Sho Talks About Pop Culture

i'm sho. i like dystopic young adult fiction and cheesy sci fi novels and reworked fairy tales. i like tv especially ridiculous dramedies but not procedurals or shows like seinfeld that are so awkward i have to hide behind the couch when i watch them. i like bad '90s pop music and the indie rock that all the cool kids like.

Guys, did you know this? Now you know this.

Exciting news!!!

IT IS TRUE!!

Here’s more info about my next book:

Simon Snow just wants to relax and savor his last year at the Watford School of Magicks, but no one will let him. His girlfriend broke up with him, his best friend is a pest, and his mentor keeps trying to hide him away in the mountains where maybe he’ll be safe. Simon can’t even enjoy the fact that his roommate and longtime nemesis is missing, because he can’t stop worrying about the evil git. Plus there are ghosts. And vampires. And actual evil things trying to shut Simon down. When you’re the most powerful magician the world has ever known, you never get to relax and savor anything. Carry On is a ghost story, a love story, a mystery and a melodrama. It has just as much kissing and talking as you’d expect from a Rainbow Rowell story — but far, far more monsters.

HEY. I wanted to answer a few questions I’ve been getting about Carry On:

1. Carry On will be a stand-alone novel. You won’t have to read Fangirl to enjoy or understand it.

2. When I say it will be a Simon and Baz story, and a love story — I definitely mean a love story between Simon and Baz.

3. The most common question I’ve been asked is whether I’m writing as Cath or as Gemma T. Leslie … The answer is, I’m writing as me.

After I finished writing Fangirl, I kept thinking about Simon and Baz and the World of Mages … I wanted to write more about them, but I didn’t want to write the full series GTL-style. And I also didn’t want to write through Cath’s hands and brain.

I wanted to explore what I would do with this world and these characters.

So, even though I’m writing a book that was inspired by fictional fanfiction of a fictional series …

… I think what I’m writing now is canon.
