I love book birthdays, don’t you? I only wish they came with cake. But I suppose with the sedentary reading lifestyle, it’s probably a good thing they don’t.

When is it YA?
I promised my friends at the Colorado Gold Conference this past weekend that I would post my presentation on When is it YA? on my blog, and I’m keeping that promise here. Some of this may be a bit familiar, since I’ve written on the subject before, but there’s new here as well. So, whenContinue reading “When is it YA?”
