The First Official Signing Is Tonight

So, I'm in New York this week and things are very exciting and incredibly fun --I'm attending all these great meetings with different publishers' publicists in order to discuss the Decatur Book Festival-- but I'm ESPECIALLY excited to have my first, for-real author appearance tonight at WORD bookstore in Greenpoint, Brooklyn at 7:30 PM. I'll be presenting with my editor, Anica Rissi, and we're appearing in part to launch WORD's new discussion series, YA Not? There are so many things that are great about this: I get to hang with my new very good friend Stephanie Anderson; we'll have cupcakes; I'll get to hang in my old neighborhood and --oh yeah-- have my first signing.

More details on the New York visit, and also a special interview with author (and friend) Laurie Halse Anderson when I get back to Decatur!


Word is at 126 Franklin St., Brooklyn NY 718-383-0096
