Other than books—and food—music is my thing. Oh. And animals. And the outdoors… I have a lot of things. When I think about my … Continue reading Guest post: Series Playlist by Jus Acardo, author of ALPHA, Book 3 in The Infinity Division Series

Interview: Lisa Brown Roberts, author of SPIES, LIES, AND ALLIES
Why did you choose to write in your particular field or genre? I love writing about teens because I vividly remember how it felt to be on the cusp of everything.

Why did you choose to write in your particular field or genre? I’ll warn you, this story is kind of strange.

Why did you choose to write in your particular field or genre? I write YA because I think everyone can remember what high school was like.

Interview: Sara Baysinger, author of THE VANISHING SPARK OF DUSK
Why did you choose to write in your particular field or genre? I only read adult fiction in high school, so when I sat down to write The Vanishing Spark of Dusk, I wanted to write *that* book that I always wanted to read. When I started shopping this story around, the main feedback I … Continue reading Interview: Sara Baysinger, author of THE VANISHING SPARK OF DUSK
Interview: Amber Hart, author of WICKED CHARM
Where did your love of books/storytelling/reading/writing/etc. come from? Many frequent trips to the library as a kid, where I would tuck myself into a corner nook and disappear between the pages.
