The fabulous YA Chicks— ViviBarnes, Christina Farley, and Amy Christine Parker—along with “guest co-creators” me, Peggy Jackson, and Tara Gallina, are putting together a really exciting global campaign launching on May 22, 2015, to encourage readers, writers, students, and teachers to share pictures all of the places—both ordinary and extraordinary—where they are reading and writing. This is open to all readers/writers of both middle grade and young adult books! It will involve a big giveaway with THREE separate prize packs:
- The Reader’s Pack: Includes one book from every participating author (just wait until you hear who we’ve got lined up!): US and Canada only
- The Writer’s Pack: Includes query critiques, writing swag from authors, and more! International
- The Classroom Pack: Includes free Skype visits w/YA Chicks and other participating authors, a signed YA Chicks poster, and other swag!International
Our introductory video is below (and much fun)! You can click here to visit the YA Chicks website and find out more about participating. There’s nothing to lose and a lot, potentially, to win!
