A good little professor, I’ve set up the vetting group for the Portus YA Reading Series. You might remember that I’m on the board of the HPEF, and we’re trying to expand our programming a bit by inviting YA authors, especially new ones, to come and share their work with us.

We’ve had a few takers, but I’d love to have more. ESPECIALLY local Texas authors who wouldn’t have to sell their first born children for gasoline this year. If you know ANYONE that you think might benefit from a public reading at a convention with several YA readers eager to hear their new stuff, please let them know to contact me.

I’m taking submissions until May 15th.

A very silly question. Does it have be published? I'm guessing yes, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

I would prefer writers with published books that the con goers can buy.

Failing that, I would prefer writers with book deals, so con goers can hunt down their work when it comes out fairly soon.

Failing that, if you are an active writer (submitting your work out there), and I have a spot, and the vetting committee likes you, well...

In short, it can't hurt to send us something.
