YA Author Panel: Starring LK Madigan, Lisa Schroeder and Me!

Today me, Lisa Schroeder, and LK Madigan did a YA panel down at the library in Corvallis, Oregon! It was so much fun! And thanks to our friend Bryan Bliss for setting it up!



I got to show off my covers--the covers I described as portraying the desperate struggle between life and death. And then I think I may have compared my road to publication to a family trip to Disney World.
