Where to Find Me (in Rochester and at NCTE2012!)

November is a busy month for me, but a great one as far as book events. On Saturday, I’ll be here…

…at the Rochester Children’s Book Festival at MCC.  If you live in Western NY, I’d love to see you there. It’s an amazing event full of book energy, and if you love books, you’ll love it here as much as I do.

Next week, I’m heading west to NCTE 2012 in Las Vegas. Here’s my schedule of events there:
