A Long Visit

Come on over to James Preller’s blog for a long chat about George and Martha, publishing insecurities, classy dorm posters, the picture book title that nearly killed me with envy, the novel-editing event that caused one of us to weep, why we’re both crazy about Matthew Cordell. And about 54,313 other things.
