New Feature: Because of A Book

I am so excited to tell you about a new feature at Write For A Reader, Because of A Book.  I hope you will enjoy this new Tuesday post.  It will be a weekly post, not by me, but by authors, bloggers, and publishers.  Of course, it's about books - the books that we read as children that have had some kind of an impact on our lives.  What do I mean?  Well, many of us read a book growing up, that sparked something inside us, created the reader we are now, inspired us to write, etc.  In some way, our lives were changed Because of A Book!

Many of you know that I belong to a wonderful group called the Word Ninjas.  The first set of posts will be from my fellow Word Ninja members.  All of the authors are '09/10 debs with YA books and I am so pleased to be able to introduce or reacquaint you with them through these posts.  The Word Ninja bloggers will also be stopping by.  This is a great group of YA bloggers from all over the country and across the pond, who I'm very proud to be in cahoots with!  Please comment on their posts, let them know what you think, share some love.  They are all doing this out of the kindness of their hearts and I'm very thankful to each and every one of them!

Our first guest will be the YA author of the soon-to-be-released (July 7th), Eyes Like Stars, Lisa Mantchev.  Come back tomorrow and see what she has to say!
