I had a great time asking them!!

It was a blast! Thanks for trusting me with your first interview as Karissa. :)

I agree and our budgets get stretched with the bigger conferences fees sometimes, too. There are some gems locally that have a nice price point and still give you great value for your money.

Little Gray Lies sounds like you're talking about a woman with gray hair and NOT an MG book. A Fragment of Family is much more in line with the family troubles that tend to appeal to the MG reader. In my opinion.

@@christinedesmet3710 Does it make a difference if it is YA . . . and if you know it is a murder mystery? Prob not, right?

Not a difference at all; you answered your question. YA would be the same. No teen reader is interested in anything "gray," though they do love their grandmas and grandpas a lot. Also, we don't know what "gray lies" means and thus it's just not a grabber. But we do understand a family falling apart--a fragment of one, which feels sad and in need of attention. @@ValerieBielAuthor

Thank you!

Thank you! 😊

And if you have any extra blackberries . . . (my favorite berry) ;-)

@@ChrisNorburyAuthor It is a nice place -- not so hard to ride out a pandemic here. If all else fails in terms of fresh blackberries, there will likely be some in the freezer to share. :)
