The wonderful Lisa Yee - THE MISFITS have arrived! is a friend and fellow Trojan. She's a trailblazer who helped put Asian voices and characters front and center in the world of children's books. She's heading back to our old campus for the LA Festival of Books! Fight on Lisa!

I'm so excited that I'll be at TLA! There will be plenty of mixing and mingling and rumor has it that we'll be giving away a bunch of advance copies of the Sherlock Society. I hope to see you there! TX Bluebonnet Award Texas Library Assn. Young Adult Round Table Simon Kids S&S EducationLibrary
I am hitting the road and would love to see you in person. In the next month, I'll be at three book festivals and two library conferences. All of the events are going to be great, but they'd be even better if you were there! Texas Library Assn. MO School Librarians North Texas Teen Book Festival BAM! Festival
Mirror, Mirror, into which I look, Can you please recommend a book?
I'm so excited Sarah Mlynowski's super-duper twisted fairy tale series is being turned into Graphic novels with art by Anu Chouhan ! They're delightful, and a must for your bookshelf! Graphix Books 💥 Scholastic
It is our business to know what others do not. That's the motto of the Sherlock Society. One thing I know, that you may not, is that Barnes & Noble is going to sell an exclusive edition of the book. You'll probably want both, just to be safe. Simon Kids

I've got to go. So let me say to all of you happy reading! Thank you for this community! #MGBookChat
When good things in Middle Grade happen, I think we should all still use the hashtag #MGBookChat
I think this may be the only reason I've stayed on Twitter. Hmm, what will I do now. #MGBookChat
Hi #MGBookChat ! My name is James and I write mystery and spy novels. Such a bittersweet night. I've so enjoyed our visits.

To celebrate, I'll randomly pick a member at the end of this week to win an advance copy. Simon Kids S&S EducationLibrary FAME Texas Library Assn.
Still reeling from Laurie's bombshell. A topic I wanted to bring up in Open Chat was that I'm thinking of doing a City Spies book club. It would be like one book a month. People who signed up would get a link and we could talk about the book. Would people sign up? #mgbookchat
Sorry for the delay, right as I got on the sixth grader down the street called to give me her instant review of Sherlock. I gave her the ARC last night and she was already done. #MGBookChat

No unboxing because I had no idea such things existed. My sneaky editor sent these beauties to me without warning. I'm swimming in City Spies, so I can't really process this, but I cannot wait for you to meet the Sherlock Society. Giveaways in the near future! Simon Kids
Hi! I'm working late tonight on an upcoming manuscript, but I wanted to say Hi #MGBookChat ! My name is James and I write MG spy and mystery books.
