U. A. Hall is a young adult author who loves reading and discovering new fairytales. If she could be compared to any Harry Potter character it would be Hermoine Granger. If she were a princess she'd be Cimorene from The Enchanted Forest Chronicles. She lives with her vampire werewolf ghost alien hybrid hobbit elf husband from the future. Her daughter is like Sunny from Series of Unfortunate Events and her son is the doppelganger of Greg Hefley from Diary of a Wimpy Kid. She would like to think that in the Hunger Games she would be Katniss, but she probably would have been more like Foxface. If she were a Tetris block, she'd be the long blue piece. She is a Chicago native, so yes, she is biased when it comes to deep-dish pizza. It is way bet ...more

An In-Depth Article about a prolific fairy-tale genre bender

Neil Gaiman is one of my favorite authors. His ability to capture characters in such a way that the reader begins to analyze the personality as well as the surrounding plot is amazing.

J.K. Rowling
“If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

“Books are a uniquely portable magic.”
Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft

Eugene Field
“All good and true book-lovers practice the pleasing and improving avocation of reading in bed ... No book can be appreciated until it has been slept with and dreamed over.”
Eugene Field, The Love Affairs Of A Bibliomaniac

Jane Yolen
“Exercise the writing muscle every day, even if it is only a letter, notes, a title list, a character sketch, a journal entry. Writers are like dancers, like athletes. Without that exercise, the muscles seize up.”
Jane Yolen

Jane Yolen
“A child who can love the oddities of a fantasy book cannot possibly be xenophobic as an adult. What is a different color, a different culture, a different tongue for a child who has already mastered Elvish, respected Puddleglums, or fallen under the spell of dark-skinned Ged?”
Jane Yolen, Touch Magic: Fantasy, Faerie & Folklore in the Literature of Childhood
