Writers as Insta-Friends

This week I had the chance to have lunch with Marianne Mancusi, whose prolific works are completely intimidating!

Luckily, she herself is not--she's awesome. We share a publishing house and an editor, and she gave me great insight and advice. Yay for friendly writers!

PS-Her latest book, Moongazer, is out in like 3 days. SF Scope called it "The Matrix and Snow Crash with a bit of Blade Runner thrown into the mix." So hello--go get it!

It's here--the August issue! There's an excerpt of Violet on the Runway on page 172. I am beyond excited. Two other fun books, Breakfast at Bloomingdale's, by Kristen Kemp, and Girl of the Moment, by Lizabeth Zindel, are excerpted also. Yay! Happy Fourth of July!

PS-If you're a local bookstore fan, find these books at an independent store near you at booksense.com!
