| Bio: | Hi, I'm the author of How To Stop a Moving Train, a middle grade novel edited by Patricia Lee Gauch that's coming out with Philomel Books in August, 2009. The process of getting a book accepted for publication is a wild ride! And I'm finding out that having a manuscript accepted is just the beginning of the process. Join me in my countdown to publication as I share the many lessons I'm learning about the publishing and bookselling worlds. Here I'll share my hopes, dreams, frustrations and tips on book marketing, as well as interviews with children's book industry professionals, and other children's book news.
