Two important things. First, I am the absolute worst for taking so long to announce this, but I’m doing a panel this coming Thursday, February 23, with my dear friend and the author of the Wings of Fire dragon books, Tui Sutherland!

It’s called A Midwinter Night’s Fantasy Panel. The Horn Book Magazine‘s Martha Parravano will be moderating. It’s from 5:30–7:00PM at Simmons College, 300 The Fenway, Boston, MA, Management Building M501/502.

This panel is hosted by Children’s Books Boston and space is limited, so if you’d like to go, register here.

And sorry for the late notice. The truth is that ever since about, oh, I don’t know, the second week of November, I’ve been dropping a lot of straws.

The other important thing is that I just wanted to let all of you know that I found the perfect office :). It’s close to my home, it’s in a lovely, historical office building, it has all the space I need, and its existence is making all this moving stuff feel much less daunting. In fact, after I post this, I may go pack a box.

Many, many thanks to everyone who read my post, passed it on, and/or got in touch with us. You are generous and kind and I thoroughly appreciate it.
