This Thursday, April 15 is a lot more than just tax day. It's Teen Literature Day and there's big doings to celebrate and support teens and the books they love. Drop on over to Cynsations to check out Operation Teen Book Drop with 10,000 new books going to Native reservations and tribal lands! It's going to be an amazing Thursday. So right after you mail your taxes, go buy a book for a teen and join in the fun. Teen Literature Day is made possible by YALSA and a growing group of publishers, bloggers, and authors. It's great to know that April 15 isn't just for taxes anymore!
But come back later today for more on writing backstory. We'll talk a bit about handling flashbacks, and why prologues are just plain wrong. See you soon. HH

This Friday is particularly fantastic because this post is being brought to you by my handy post timer while I relax in the sun. I’m on vacation! Don’t worry though, I’ll be back on Monday. I can’t stay away from the computer for too long or I go into withdrawal (it is an ugly scene trust me). In the meantime here are some links to keep you busy.
Do you keep a close eye on your Pulitzer?
Test your literary knowledge (via Maud Newton).
Read about Soleil’s visit. (more…)
