Back in October, some of the best young adult & middle grade authors around came to Portland, Oregon for Wordstock Festival — which, as many of you know, I am the YA/children’s author coordinator for. We had SO MANY amazing authors in one place, that I had to find some cool way to share the awesome with all of you who were unable to make the trek to Portland for the festival.
So while they were here, I had all of the YA and MG authors sign bookplates — and now, it’s time to share those with all of you!
