paperback edition. We had no idea this would happen for us. We are jumping up and down that Paige gets to share her journey with book lovers this Christmas. What an honour, indeed. Our names have come up with Stephanie Meyer of the Twilight Saga, too!
In the initial press release for Wake Me Up Inside, Book One, my book promotion specialist from FriesenPress wrote: “The advent of strong female examples in popular culture is now apparent, with more appearing every day. Bold young characters like smart and rebellious Gwen Stacy of The Amazing Spiderman, skilled archer Merida in the new Pixar movie Brave, and strong-willed Katniss of the tremendously popular novel and film Hunger Games, make powerful statements about the capabilities of teen girls. With this current wave of strong feminine ideals, there is sure to be a ground swell of empowered young women out there. Orillia author, Lee Bice-Matheson continues this positive trend with her debut novel to be released in August.” Since this was written, we are pleased to say Paige is a hero to boys and girls. In fact, 49% of our Facebook friends are boys and 51% are girls.
