Kathi Appelt is coming to town, speaking at the Farmington Public Library, meeting kids, signing books. Few people from my writing world ever make it to the wilds of northwest New Mexico, so this will be a thrill.
Celebrate the
Cynsations blog's 10th anniversary. Has it been 10 years already? Congratulations, Cyn, for building this amazing resource for all of us who care about literature for children and young adults.


It's
ALA's Banned Books Week. See this video on censorship.
