I am in this weird place where I want to write a blog post but I have absolutely no idea what to write about. The smart thing would be to just skip blogging today, but instead I am going to stare at this little box for a while and then probably write a bunch of [...]
Yet again I am sending you to another site instead of writing something interesting here. Sorry…I will repent, or something. But this is really cool. And you all need to check it out. Four YA-writers-slash-movie-junkies (Kiersten White, Stephanie Perkins, Natalie Whipple, and Molly Brewer) got together recently and started YAcinema. Basically the idea is this: [...]
