The publishing industry is constantly changing. It’s important to stay up-to-date with things like trends, best sellers, and sales, but there’s so much more that goes into writing a book, especially when you’re an adult writing for teens. Join us in August as we dive into what it takes to write YA today with three debut YA authors.
The conversation will be moderated by WLT Program Director Sam Babiak.
RSVP to receive the link. We hope to see you there!
Buy our panelists books and support indie bookstores! You can find our August Third Thursday booklist here.
Jason June (it's a two-name first name, like Mary-Kate without the hyphen or the Olsen twin) is a genderqueer writer mermaid who loves to create picture books that mix the flamboyantly whacky with the slightly dark, and young adult contemporary rom-coms full of love and lust and hijinks. His debut queer YA rom-com, JAY'S GAY AGENDA, about gay Type A Virgo listmakers, is out now. When not writing, JJ zips about Austin, Texas, with his Pomeranian, Pom Brokaw, and daydreams about fashions inspired by Laura Dern.
