North Texas Teen Book Festival: Probably one of the biggest book festivals in the South

By -
Hello fellow readers! Do you live relatively near the DFW area and love books?!? If so, in two weeks make sure to free up your Saturday because NTTBF 16 is coming up! Probably the only thing better than seeing my favorite authors would be if I say a fan of my blog. If I did, I would literally flip (I also may or may not be carrying full copies of the FanFic so... just saying) My (tentative) panel schedule is looking like this:

8:15- Middle Grade Keynote. Last year I missed this and who knows what they talk about here. Also, I've heard a majority of the MG authors are here so if Victoria Aveyard shows up and I can get an early signature/pic, I would die.

9:00- School Days, School Dayz. Not only is it in one of the crazy ballrooms, but I've always had a taste for books about characters who are also in school (Especially a book called Spy School) Or I might just be with my friends. Who knows.

10:00- I plan on getting book speed dating at this time. If I don't get a wristband for 10 AM then i guess I'll hang with my friends wherever they go.

11 AM: this one's an interesting time. Either the podcast discussion panel or The convo with James Dashner (Why is there so many good stuff!) They both seem EXTREMELY interesting so.. IDK.

12 PM: Either the MG panel or most likely this Dystopia Dynasty panel. Who doesn't love Dystopia, but then again, MG is what I blog about so...

1 PM: THE BOOKTUBE PANEL. BookTubing is basically blogging but with your face on camera. I need to learn tricks on how to improve my content. This is the second most hype-for-skype panel probably that I want to go to next to

2 PM: Well, since we're on the subject of writing reviews... WRITING FOR WRITING PANEL = THE MOST HYPE-FOR-SKYPE PANEL EVER!!!. Yeah so BookTubing will give me a good idea, but this is all relate able. It'll also sort of help me with writing for school. So excited.

3 PM- The YA Keynote. These keynotes are great. Also the free button that comes with it. Free stuff and a great keynote? Best Way to end the festival.

Sometime throughout the day, i want to get my Red Queen series books signed. Do you plan on coming? Because I'd like to know whether or not I'll be printing any copies. Comment down below. Later this week I'll release more info about my trip. BE THERE OR BE SQUARE

Author Interview! Starring Gordon Korman!

My first author interview posted on this blog (can you believe it?)! Today's author interview features bestselling author of Ungifted, The Hypnotist, Schooled, and Masterminds  Gordon Korman! I asked him a couple questions about his books, and writing in general,which he gratefully responded to. Q1-  What was your inspiration for writing these amazing stories? For example, how does one simply think to write about an ungifted kid going to a gifted school? A1-    My story ideas just come to me. I don’t want to question it too much, because I would hate to have it stop happening! But really, most authors don’t require what you call “inspiration.” We write because we have something to say. That’s just about all it takes to start us scribbling. Q2-  I feel like you’ve been asked this a million times, but your strategy for avoiding writer’s block? A2- Can you believe it? I’ve never had writer’s block. I think my reason is that I plan my story thorough...

OMG ITS A SPY SCHOOL- FUNJUNGLE CROSSOVER FANFIC *preview edition*

By -
 Merry Christmas to all! Sure it's still two days before but who says we can't celebrate early. As a surprise I'm in the process of writing a Spy School-FunJungle crossover snazzapalooza fanfic! Here is a little preview which I know you'll enjoy.... “Are you sure this is December?” Warren yelled from the back. Chip went and wacked him on the head with a newspaper as if he were an annoying fly buzzing around you. “It’s Texas you moron, it isn’t like DC! Instead of snow and hot chocolate they have sandy beaches and lemonade year round” You couldn’t blame Warren though; we flew over sunny lands grassy patches when just a couple hours ago we were fighting through a biting wind and treading through a snow just to board the plane.   We were trying our best to get along because after the whole stop-SPYDER-from-blowing-up-New-York fiasco the academy figured we were ready for some field work (who knows what they were thinking with Warren). The agency had gotten ...
