Tomorrow I’m heading back on book tour (one of my favorite things to do) for events in Lexington, Cincinnati, Louisville and Miami (for a special GNO event with Carmindy for her book The 5-Minute Face!). If you’re around, come by and share your stories about your best and worst dates. Here’s the schedule: LEXINGTON, KY [...]
The reason the title of this post says “season” and not “fall” or “Autumn” (a little shoutout to 500 Days of Summer), is because the wonderful, talented Steph Bowe is the list’s creator. And she lives in Australia. And it is spring there, not fall, which means while everyone here is heading into those few [...]
Teenreads.com – a great site for all things YA – just published my essay Teenager At Heart: The Story Behind Getting Published and I wanted to share it here, too. It’s more like the family history of my first book, How to Raise Your Parents, but you’ll see what I mean… It was raining the [...]
Everyone likes to talk about boys. And I mean everyone – not just teen girls. Almost every single host that’s interviewed me has had some good stories about dating or their first love or even their first heartbreak. Turns out that boys are a universal topic. (Surprise, surprise.) With that in mind, I thought I [...]
I first met Jordyn Turney (19-year old writer, YA book blogger, and Twitteraholic) when I was working on How to Raise Your Parents last year. She reviewed it for her then-blog and we got to know each other. So, when I heard she launched her new blog Ten Cent Notes, I had to get her [...]
I am a creature of habit. I will eat the same sandwich for weeks at a time (Pret-A-Manger‘s cheddar and apple is my current selection), listen to the same song over-and-over (Who’s to Say by Vanessa Carlton-DO NOT make fun of me), and even wear the same pair of jeans days in a row (gasp!). [...]

I love the parenting host of ABC News Now, Annie Pleshette Murphy. She’s really in touch with what’s happening on the YA scene and had some good questions during our interview about BOYOLOGY. One of the recurring questions I’m getting from TV anchors and radio hosts is, “So how different IS it being a teenager [...]
Just a reminder that I’m going to be at RJ Julia in Madison, CT, tomorrow at 7:00pm for my new book BOYOLOGY. I’d love to see some friendly faces so if you’re in the hood, be sure to drop by! Visit RJ Julia’s website for more event details or drop me an email: asksarahb@gmail.com.
Every author obsesses over her Amazon ranking. (Come on, you know it’s true.) I took these snapshots the day I was on the Today Show for Boyology and I watched (almost minute by minute) as my ranking went from 70,000 to 400! I know it’s kind of ridiculous and completely self-indulgent, but I would be [...]
