Wanted to remind people that everyone interested in my work is required to buy my sister’s novels—the second one is out in November—and attend all of her literary events. Tomorrow is one such event. Attendance is mandatory.
We had a great time in Tennessee this weekend at the Freedom to Read Celebration (in collaboration with @PENamerica).
