I met Victoria Scott around the beginning of my writing journey. I was a few chapters into My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century, and she had just finished one awesome book and was starting to plot another book of hers. You may’ve heard of it–The Collector??
Yep, I was blessed to be a critique partner on this book and fell in love with Dante from the start. I also fell in love with Victoria Scott’s writing and her extreme loyalty to her friends. And ya’ll, the girl is just smart. Like crazy smart. She’s one cool chica.
2013 is a big year for Ms. Scott, but it’s only the beginning. She has so much excitement ahead and I can’t wait to see where life takes her.

And here is what is in store for Tori this year:
2013 is my debut year. It’s exciting and nerve-wracking and mind-blowing. It feels like a year of change. A year in which I can do anything.
Like resist eating oatmeal chocolate-chip cookies even though my mom made them from scratch.
Or exercise even though my tennis shoes totally need a good cleaning and maybe I should do that instead.
Maybe, maybe I can even focus on meditation versus stressing the hell out at every opportunity.
But let’s get real. Above all of those things, I should probably just try being honest with myself and say that in 2013 I’m going to be a cookie-eating, exercise-shunning, stressball of semi-happiness that, yes, has a book debuting. Amen.
