Announcing YALLFest

This November, I’m taking part in an EPIC meeting of YA literature’s finest down in Charleston, South Carolina: YALLFest.

And I mean EPIC. Check out this author list:

Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl, David Levithan, Melissa de la Cruz, Heather Brewer, Gayle Forman, Kaleb Nation, Ellen Hopkins, Andrea Cremer, Beth Revis, Carrie Ryan, Isaac Marion, Sarah Rees Brennan, Kimberly Derting, Adele Griffin, Lisa Brown, Victoria Schwab, Michelle Hodkin, Kwame Alexander, Rosemary Clement-Moore, Saundra Mitchell, Diana Peterfreund, Caitlin Kittredge, Pseudonymous Bosch, and more!

On Friday there’s going to be master classes and roundtables. There are going to be SEVEN hourly panels with three authors each on Saturday, as well as booksignings, micro-fiction contests, live music, and lots of food, prizes, and other delights.

It’s all happening November 11 and 12, 2011 — so mark your calendars and get yourself down to South Carolina!

Here’s the current (not detailed — I’ll come back as soon as the final is posted) schedule.

PS: I *will* be giving away an ARC of For Darkness Shows the Stars there.
