Many blessings over the winter holidays! I’ll see you again early in the New Year!

Happy (Almost) 2014!

In the meantime, follow me at my facebook author page and/or twitter @CynLeitichSmith, where I’ll be highlighting the same kind of children’s-YA writing and publishing news you expect from my weekly roundup. You can also enter to win one of four copies of Feral Curse from Candlewick at Goodreads. Deadline: Jan. 2, 2014!
