Here's a question for y'all, which (1) kind of involves me hijacking the blog for personal reasons and (2) won't surprise those of you familiar with my personal psychoses. I apologize in advance for (1) and (2).
Does anyone have an opinion about how much the tendency to appear at events / signings / etc. affects a YA writer's career?
As a debut YA writer I am approaching the scary "marketing months" and trying to figure out the best way for a painfully shy person to respond to her publisher's requests for attending events without losing the plot (no pun intended)...

kristin, do you read the longstockings blog? the link is
http://thelongstockings.blogspot.com/
the post today is about book signings (how to relax at them, what to say, when to sign, etc). it's always one of my favorite blogs and would probably often have good tips for you since it's written by a bunch of new-ish authors (again, you may already read it and know all of this).
hey, thanks amanda-- i'll check it out!
yikes, what a neat blog that is-- i think i should have been reading it all along. thanks for pointing it out to me. i've bookmarked it.
