Tomorrow night, I’ll be at the Bellevue University Bookstore with a big crew of authors and illustrators who are all, like me, represented by the Erin Murphy Literary Agency. Some of these talented folks are people whom I’ve met, and whose company I already know I enjoy. Some of them are people whose debut novels and picture books I read and celebrated as a fellow Emu, but whom I’ve never had the pleasure of meeting face to face. I’m so excited to see them and hear their voices! I anticipate much hugging. HUGS ALL AROUND!

Come out and see us if you’re local, or if you happen to be in town! It’s going to be a wonderful time.
