Why I'm sending 200 copies of Little Brother to a high-school in Pensacola, FL
The principal of Booker T Washington High in Pensacola FL cancelled the school’s One School/One Book summer reading program rather than letting all the kids go through with the previously approved assignment to read Little Brother, the bestselling young adult novel by Cory Doctorow. With Cory and Tor Books’ help, the teachers are fighting back.

Quick warm-up sketch.
She’s probably upset by the terrible media coverage of the YA lit world these days. Or indeed, anything liked primarily by a large number of girls/women.

Hi Leigh! I was wondering, will we be able to see the secret Ruin and Rising pinterest boards soon? If possible, when? The mystery intrigues me. As well, is your new series The Dregs written in the same style as the Grisha Trilogy, with a third-person prol
1. I released the Ruin and Rising board today because your ask reminded me!
2. I’m hesitant to talk about The Dregs because I haven’t even sent the first draft off to my editor yet (it’s due June 13th, everyone send me good thoughts and caffeine) so EVERYTHING COULD CHANGE. But… currently, there are five main POVs, each in third person assigned (or close third). The main character is a boy named Kaz Brekker—con artist, killer, gangleader, thief. He’s horrible.
3. Bertie is a schnoodle—half schnauzer, half poodle, all adorable. I also call her “little bear” and she was the inspiration for Vladchek in “The Witch of Duva.”
The Ruin & Rising inspiration board is now public
By request from the lovely Laura, the Ruin and Rising board is now available for your perusing pleasure. It even has a couple of little quotes from R&R buried in there if you go looking.
12 days until launch!
