hello from Rimini

Today I traveled from Rome to Rimini, Italy, for the Mare di Libri festival. Tomorrow morning, I'll be on a panel (at 10 a.m.) called "More Than Vampires," where we'll talk about the paranormal trends in YA literature and in publishing overall. If you are in the vicinity, please come -- I would love to meet some of you there!

I'm really loving Rimini so far, though this may be because I got to travel here via train, enjoying the lovely countryside. Or maybe because my hotel here HAS INTERNE...
