The road to publication is paved with much weirdness and starry-eyed surprises, this is both of these things. I am honored/stunned/thrilled to be part of Odyssey Bookshop's panel series to talk about YA fantasy at Jones Library in Amherst, Massachusetts.
This is me: O_O
Because this is real and happening with my favorite local indie bookstore with some pretty Big Deal people where we get to talk about fantasy, writing, book love and meet fans from all over New England! Wow. Pinch me. OW! Okay, stop pinching.
The truth is, I knew Alexandra Bracken back when we were both debuting novels back in 2010 as part of the Tenners with Brightly Woven and she's gone on to write tons of amazing books. This may be the first time we've seen each other in person since BEA back in 2011.
I haven't met Sarah J. Maas (yet) but we've been paired up before, most notably when BOTH our books were featured on USA Today! I have been following her and the Throne of Glass series ever since and am excited/nervous/fangirl-giddy to get the chance to meet her at last!
This will be an amazing event and I hope if you're within driving-at-the-speed-limit distance, you'll come join us for good food, good conversation and a great chat! Books will be available for signing & if you want to save a seat, RSVP by emailing kids@odysseybks.com, on facebook page or call the store directly at 413-534-7307.
Wow. W-O-W!
