I'm author ELLE STRAUSS and welcome to my website!

I write fun, lower Young Adult (teen) fiction to do with whimsical things like time-travel, fairies and merfolk.

When my serious side peeks out, she's called LEE STRAUSS. She likes to write upper YA about real things that have happened in the past, or made up things that could quite possibly happen in the future.

This blog is about books, mine and other fab authors', but occasionally I'll share about other topics.

Thanks for dropping by!

Friday Free For All--Delivered Early

1. Did I mention I'm in Spain? Yes, I’m in Spain, on the fabulous island of Mallorca (aka Majorca) off the south coast of Spain in the Mediterranean Sea! But, the internet is really expensive here, so I' won't be posting until I get back to Germany on the 30th.

2. Agent Awesome has sent HOW TO DATE A MERBOY out into the wild editorial frontier! You heard me right. Now, I can tell some of you are calculating, isn’t that three out on submission? Technically, yeah. I’m sort of feeling like always the bridesmaid never the bride. But still, HOW TO DATE A MERBOY is out!!!

3. Thanks to everyone who entered the Best Beginnings contest—winners will be announced Oct 6!

4. Don't forget to sign up for the First Page (250words) BlogFest.

5. I haven't been able to go blog visiting for awhile, but once I'm back in Canada, I'll be checking in again, I promise!

Have a great week everyone!
