Bookstore event: Come hear me read from “Krishna Blue!”

Happy autumn! It’s been a busy few months, what with Viable Paradise and my birthday and and and. But I’m writing to let you know that I’ll be doing my first-ever bookstore event at the Big Blue Marble Bookstore in Philadelphia on 12 November. Details below.

Wednesday, November 12, 6:30 P.M.

Futures & Fairy Tales: A Kaleidoscope of Diverse Adventures

For this fabulous night of sf/fantasy, we’re combining two groups of authors into one big YA event! The Futures & Fairy Tales Tour comes to Philadelphia with Claire Legrand (Winterspell), Sarah Fine (Of Metal and Wishes), and Sarah Raasch (Snow Like Ashes), presenting books inspired respectively by The Nutcracker and The Phantom of the Opera, and another that’s described as “Game of Thrones meets Graceling.” Joining them will be local authors Shveta Thakrar and E.C. Myers, both contributors to the anthology Kaleidoscope: Diverse YA Science Fiction and Fantasy Stories, and Julia Rios, one of Kaleidoscope’s editors. “The diversity is so thick on the ground here that it’s like walking through an Alison Bechdel comic strip — or like walking through Mt. Airy.” (See Jen’s review of Kaleidoscope on our blog.)
Also, there will be snacks!

Hope to see you there!
