Visiting Auntie

December 4th 2008 in News

If you’re in Spokane this weekend, drop by Auntie’s at 2 pm on Saturday for my fantasy map making workshop, Map Your Way into Story.  Auntie’s is one incredible bookstore, with a staff that knows and love books. I subscribe to their newsletter just to read their reviews. Lindsey Reiswig, children’s department, will be my host. Lindsey is a wonderful resource for the best in children’s’ and YA literature.

No surprise–the publishing industry is hurting this year.  One market that holds strong is YA and middle grade. Consider buying  books as gifts this Christmas.

Travelers’ Market book signing will follow the map-making workshop.
