I think everyone has a unique point of view; it's this lens that makes each writer have such an exclusive take on the world. Here's an interview I did for WithABook book blog in conjunction with my new young adult novel INSTRUCTIONS FOR A BROKEN HEART released this month with Sourcebooks Fire.

Check it out!:

Today a very sweet blogger had me on her blog to talk about what inspired me to write INSTRUCTIONS FOR A BROKEN HEART. What I probably should have mentioned is that it's bloggers like Mia that mean the world to authors like me. :)

This month, YA author Stasia Ward Kehoe kicked off the book tour "Stages on Pages" as part of the launch for her wonderful new YA novel, Audition.

But this was no ordinary launch. Stasia did something really special and generous. She asked 11 other authors (and some special guests) to be a part of her big event. Stasia's a former dancer and choreographer and Audition was very much inspired by her passion for dance and creativity. Inspired to showcase the arts and their importance in young people's lives, she reached out to other authors (myself included) whose books are very much responses to the arts that inspired our youth - theatre, music, dance, visual arts.

I am honored to be invited to share the spotlight with Stasia and I'm inspired by her generosity and communal spirit to showcase the importance of the arts. I invite you to check out Stages on Pages -the site, the tour, and the wonderful author who got this all started. I look forward to joining her for the Northern California portion of the tour!
