Can't get enough to read by your favorite authors? Check the web to see if they have a blog! Many popular authors keep frequently updated sites where they share everything from news about new books, give away contests, and their personal opinions on anything and everything.
Popular (and prolific) author Meg Cabot (author of Being Nikki, the Princess Diaries series and many many others, has a frequently hilarious and always entertaining blog, Meg's Diary. She has frequent contests for her fans, as well as lots of pop culture gossip and reviews.
Another great one is from John Green, author of bestseller novels Paper Towns, Looking for Alaska, and An Abundance of Katherines. If you enjoy his writing style and unique sense of humor, you should check out his website, Sparks Fly Up. It features all sorts of musings, including video entries where he answers fan questions (on anything from his book characters to advice for girls about boys).
So, if you are looking for something from your favorite writers while you wait for their newest books to come out, do a search and see if they are out there on the web! Even childhood favorite Judy Blume is in on the act!
