CLA Conference

This Monday and Tuesday, I'll be at the Connecticut Library Conference. 

It's a special one this year because I was the co-chair for the conference. And it takes a LOT of planning. But it's almost here and I'm excited because I think it's going to be a great conference.

The keynotes are going to be amazing:

I really can't wait to hear them!

Plus I'm co-presenting a session on Core Modern Romance Authors for the library and helping out at Children's and Teen Book Buzz where I'm talking about upcoming middle grade and children's books.

It's going to be a busy two days, but it will be great.
