Tiffany D. Jackson is in Washington D.C doing a little research for her second novel.

Lynn K. Hall received her first trade review and is elated (also incredibly relieved) Kirkus Reviews had nice things to say! You can check it out here.

Amy Poeppel had a busy week! Her good friends, April Benasich and James Melcher, hosted a “Galley Party” for her – It was a fun celebration to generate enthusiasm about the book, as well as a chance for Amy to say thank you to the amazing people who have been instrumental in getting SMALL ADMISSIONS published. Amy was thrilled to drink champagne with fellow Deb Tiffany Jackson and to get to meet the fabulous Wednesday Martin, author of PRIMATES OF PARK AVENUE.

Crystal King is back from her research trip to Italy but spent the week recovering from a fairly nasty cold. On a brighter note, however, she’s ready to start in on what may be the final round of edits on FEAST OF SORROW!

 

 

Author: Amy Poeppel

Amy Poeppel grew up in Dallas, Texas and left the south to attend Wellesley College. Since then, she has worked as an actor, a high school English teacher, and most recently as the Assistant Director of Admissions at a school in New York City. Her three fabulous boys are all off in Boston attending school, and she and her husband now split their time between New York and Frankfurt, Germany. A theatrical version of SMALL ADMISSIONS was workshopped at the Actors Studio Playwrights/Directors Unit. She later expanded it into her first novel.
