Last week on FYFA:
My Sunday Post is going up late today because I spent the day at the YA Fandom Frenzy, which was run by Anderson’s Bookstore in Naperville. The event was a little hectic, but TONS of fun – I plan to write a post about it later this week. So make sure you check that one out if you want to read some fun facts about the 40 YA authors who were there and see pics! Last week was really busy for me because I got a new editing client and jumped straight into editing her first book. Plus, we spent yesterday celebrating my youngest’s 10th birthday and my in-laws 70th birthdays!
