NYCTAF Here I Come!

I am so completely excited to be headed to my old stomping grounds, New York City, to participate in the INCREDIBLY HUGE, AMAZINGLY AWESOME, NYC Teen Author festival, coming up March 15-20th. This is a huge, huge, huge endeavor, with signings all over the five boroughs, heaps of interesting talks and panels, and appearances by the likes (just to name a few) of Libba Bray, Susane Colasanti, Sarah Dessen, Aimee Friedman, John Green, David Levithan, E. Lockhart, Micol Ostow, Elizabeth Scott, Sara Shepard, and Maggie Stiefvater. (And, I swear, this is just a FEW of the fabulous authors involved.)

I am blessed to be included in this superstar lineup, presenting in a panel from 6:45-8:30, along with Jessica Blank, Eireann Corrigan, Sarah Dessen, Jenny Han, Siobhan Vivian, Adrienne Maria Vrettos, and Jacqueline Woodson. The topic is “What it Feels Like for a Girl – Writing in a Teen Girl’s Voice,” and will be in the South Court of the New York Public Library on 42nd Street. (The one, as it was explained to me, with the lions.) Hope you can catch any of this fantastic festival!!
