misswendyd: The Importance of YA for YA. This recap of a signing with Sarah J. Maas, Susan Dennard, Liz Norris, and Tiffany Schmidt made me cry. “The girl next to me at CBW last night was all legs and arms, her long blonde hair reminiscent of Celaena’s, braces on her teeth, and Heir of Fire trapped between her arms. She hummed with energy. She videotaped the whole thing, and she watched the Q&A with shining eyes. The world won’t be kind to her. It just won’t. But if for a few hours a day, she gets to be Celaena who lives in a cruel and unfair world but finds moments of beauty, truth, and friendship all around her, then we’ve done right by her.” Written by 2015 debut author Katherine Locke. This is the event that Kim moderated; her recap is here. -- source link
