1. I now have only 13 BFYA nominations to read before we meet at the ALA Annual Conference. This means that as long as I knock off one a day, I might be able to read something else. I have to say, reading only nominations for weeks in a row has been kind of odd. It doesn't feel like required reading in college or high school - since they're all fiction and, well, reading fiction never feels like work for me - but I am really looking forward to being able to mix it up again. Also, my to-read pile is HUGE, thanks to a bunch of ARCs from Scholastic. And my bedside reading is Rick Riordan's new one, so... yeah, you could say I'm not lacking in reading material.
2. Finally have an idea for my next YA project. At least, I think so. Let's just say it was inspired by a redsox.com article that ran in the last couple days about Victor Martinez. Now, if I could just find some time to start writing it....
3. This is completely unrelated to all things YA... but I just found out that someone with whom I attended junior high has married Alanis Morissette. That's pretty crazy!
