News from the Class of 2019 Debs:

K.A. Doore is at ConFusion in Detroit this weekend! She also found out just this week that her book earned a starred review from Publisher’s Weekly, so don’t mind her, passed out from shock in the corner.
Devi S. Laskar is working frantically on an essay about getting lost. She  was happily shocked to see 1.  her book mentioned in (UK) Cosmopolitan magazine’s most anticipated list this week and 2. her book already on the New Fiction shelf at Books Inc. Mountain View in CA. The Atlas of Reds and Blues is out officially Feb. 5.
Layne Fargo did her first-ever author event this week, in conversation with this week’s guest Amy Gentry to celebrate the release of Last Woman Standing! It was such a blast!
Stephanie Jimenez revealed her cover this week on HelloGiggles! And was included on this list from Cosmo UK! And is getting galleys at last some time this week and CANNOT WAIT TO SEE THEM!
Martine Fournier Watson got another batch of ARCs from Penguin and ordered some cool little author business cards, so now she can visit her local libraries and bookstores this week and ask them to order the book!

See you next week when we blog about comp titles for our books.
