As you’ve probably noticed, I’ve been mostly absent from the blogging scene lately, other than to feature books by some of my fellow YA authors. There’s a good reason for that. My friend McKenzie McCann blogged about something she calls “One More Thing Syndrome” a while back.  (I can’t find your blog post now, McKenzie, [...]
