Today we have Kirstin Cronn-Mills, terrific YA author with one book on the shelves and one set to come out next year. A couple of years ago, I was lucky enough to do a book signing with her at my local Barnes & Noble. I can’t remember how many books I sold (maybe six?), but I remember the conversation I had with Kirstin.
Kirstin’s Firsts:
Anthology story: The First Time I Got Stranded In The Really Big Empty
First line:
You know how graduation parties normally are–cake, ham sandwiches, picture boards full of kid-in-bathtub photos, with a few confirmation and fishing shots thrown in for variety?
Per Kirstin’s blog, this is an epilogue to her debut novel. But the story works as a standalone story as well. No matter where you live, you’ll feel that really big empty.
2009 Debut: The Sky Always Hears Me and The Hills Don’t Mind
Up Next: Beautiful Music for Ugly Children ~ coming in 2012!

I’m not sure we sold 6 books between us (people just looked confused by us), but talking to you made it a wonderful time. : ) Thanks for the shout-out. I love what you’ve been doing!
