Event Pics -- RIF and Bridget Zinn's POISON

A couple weeks ago, Cyn, Chris Barton, and Tim Tingle were featured authors at an event at the LBJ Library sponsored by Reading is Fundamental.  Here are some pics:

Then, last week, we attended a gathering at BookPeople for the release of the late Bridget Zinn's POISON.  To celebrate, a group of Austin authors signed copies of the book, which are now available at BookPeople!  To buy a copy, click here.

Photo report: Writers' League and DEAR TEEN ME

Last Thursday, I had the pleasure of speaking on a panel for the Writers' League of Texas's Third Thursday program with authors Cory Putnam Oakes and Bethany Hegedus; and Meghan Goel (children's buyer at BookPeople).  We talked about book launches and what to do after the dust settles

And speaking of launches, last weekend was the launch party for DEAR TEEN ME, at Bookspot in Round Rock.  The theme was dress for a high school semiformal of your era...
