It is a good idea to be alone in a garden at dawn or dark so that all its shy presence may haunt you and possess you in a reverie of suspended thought.

Authors, They’re Just Like Us! --- Behind the Scenes at Authors Unlimited 2015
Comments
While attending Author's Unlimited in Long Island on April 24th, 2015 --- an event where eight YA authors and just short of 200 local teens spent the morning and afternoon together, hanging out in panels, having group discussions and getting their books signed --- I found myself thinking about the US Weekly segment
Sometimes roller skates and teammates make for way better proms than gowns and streamers --- ROLLER GIRL author/illustrator Victoria Jamieson will prove it to you in her sweet and kickbutt comic, below!

First up, in ironic news: Selfies were banned from Kim K. W.’s Manhattan event for her new book, SELFISH, last week. Nikki has a theory that Kim is hoarding all the selfies for herself --- talk about selfish! It’s a selfie monopoly! Bingo!
But seriously, Kim --- along with the rest of the Kardashian Klan --- has managed to make a Killing in so many diverse industries; she’s Konquered TV, fashion, beauty and the letter K, and now she’s got the biggest book of the season. For those of you who pretend not to be interested in these Kinds of things, SELFISH is a collection of Kim’s selfies, some seen around the world and some never before seen. SELFISH is already a top 100 Amazon bestseller, and the fact that Kim can get us to buy something that we can get for free is a testament to her A+ marketing skills. Personally, we’re waiting to invest in the updated edition with an introduction by Dr. Kanye West.
