While gushing about Mo Willems to a co-worker today, I realized I sounded like my pre-teen self talking about Leonardo DiCaprio and an idea was born:
A magazine for librarians,Tiger Beat style, with posters and interviews for the fangirl (or boy) that still lives within each of us.
YA authors tend to be a charming sort of nerdy-hot, so of course the first cover would contain a bunch of them. Oh, John and Hank Green! SWOON! This was thrown together today (um, on my breaks, of course) and makes me laugh. If only it existed for real.
How far can we take this fake magazine?
i can't read the blurb about maureen johnson, does it say-
ReplyDelete"naked and brown?" or "makes us swoon" ?
"makes us swoon"!! What kind of magazine do you think this IS??
ReplyDeletelisten sarah, i know exactly what kind of magazine this is.
ReplyDeleteone for which you are interviewing James Kennedy on Saturday? We should come up with a list of incredible questions. Seriously. I want this fake magazine to happen. On the internet. With mostly fake articles, but how cool would a real but ridiculous one be?
ReplyDeleteI think you should send a request to Maureen Johnson for an interview. Atleast for an interview through email. I think she'd be down for it.
ReplyDeleteI think YOU should send an interview request to Maureen Johnson!
ReplyDeleteyeah amp, YOU got a christmas card from her.
ReplyDeleteI would, but we had an awkward meeting once. Ok, I was sort of stalking her during ALA one year.
