Where It All Started: On the Intrepid

My publishing journey kicked off at the cavalcade of authors party on the Intrepid at BEA in NY right after Random House had acquired my STARTERS duology. I was introduced to the crowd as Random House’s newest author and I got to meet their stars Lauren Kate, Christopher Paolini, and one I shared my editor with, the lovely Tyra Banks.

“Did Cinderella ever consider fessing up to the prince, that night she was enjoying herself in the fancy ball gown? Did she even think of telling him, oh, by the way, Prince, the coach isn’t mine, I’m really a filthy little barefoot servant on borrowed time? No. She took her moment. And then went quietly away after midnight.”
Lissa Price, Starters

“No one ever complained about a fat brain. No one ever accused their brain of being too short or too tall, too wide or too narrow. Or ugly. It either worked or it didn't, and mine worked just fine.”
Lissa Price, Starters

“When hawks cry, time to fly.”
Lissa Price, Starters
