THE UTTERLY GLAMOROUS LIFE OF A DEBUT NOVELIST
Or: what I really learned when I wrote my first book
That’s the title of an article I wrote that Facenews.org (my fave new news site!) published and you can read it here if you want. Here’s a taste to whet your appetites:
I used to daydream in color about what would happen when my debut young adult novel hit bookshelves. I would get recognized at Borders. Sixteen-year-old girls would write me and say, “Your novel changed my life.” Stephen King would dust off all those letters I wrote him as a gawky teenager (because he totally saved them) and he’d phone me to say, “I knew you had talent, even then.”
The reality, not surprisingly, is a lot different.

I love ski-mask-wearing writers. More of us need to be thugs. Thanks for joining our irresponsible group of misfit writers.
