I look forward to returning to the AJC Decatur Book Festival (the largest independent book festival in the country!) in downtown Decatur, Georgia, on September 1-3. You'll find me (and The Teacher's Pet!) sharing a stage with Philip Stead and Matthew Cordell at the Decatur Recreation Center on Saturday, September 2nd, at 1pm, for our session, Go for the Goldfish. We'll talk about unexpected adventures with friendship and pets. Please come say hello!

Check out this list of fabulous authors who will be there. (And don't miss these three panels for which I'm the moderator!)
