So thrilled to see this happening for Blue Bicycle Books and Charleston! <br /><br />And it makes my heart happy to see how amped teens get for authors. Authors! Not 'singers' or actors, but people who create amazing stories by putting words on paper. It's awesome.Jocelyn Rishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18141176507423961390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8005062827798430682.post-54047146760036754502013-11-13T08:06:13.527-05:002013-11-13T08:06:13.527-05:00Your blog seems very nice..

I've felt most inspired by reader events and an annual YA event for educators where everyone is so excited about books. Thanks for sharing your experience!Stephscohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06328839483008086049noreply@blogger.com
