Update: Victoria Holmes on the Today’s Show
June 26th, 2008 by Kathleen Bolton
Former WU contributor Victoria Holmes has again scored another bestseller! As the brainchild behind YA mega-phenom series WARRIORS (under the pen name Erin Hunter), she’s developed a new series for this readership. Reviews have been raves.
SEEKERS: THE QUEST BEGINS is a new spin on the Warriors animal survival stories. This time, three bear cubs struggle to survive in a world beset by global warming and human activity. The series challenges this readership while offering another character-driven saga which will keep them coming back for subsequent titles. Writers for this market segment–take note!
Vicky’s been on tour promoting the series. Here she is on the Today’s Show with Al Roker on his Al Roker’s Book Club for Kids, along with a posse of adorable children. I asked Vicky if she was nervous being on the biggest morning talk show in America with Al Roker, and she said, “I wasn’t nervous at all, it wasn’t live and how can you be scared of someone like Al Roker?”
Enjoy!
“Adorable” is definitely the word–Vicky, the kids, the interview, the bears, all of it. Big congrats on your new successful series, Vicky!
