Book Tour Summer 2021

 Hey there! Our new book, MY CONTRARY MARY, is coming out next week, and we are going on a (virtual) book tour to celebrate. We always read a little bit from the book, laugh a lot, and offer fun swag (in this case, a bunch of signed bookplates). Click on the links below so you can register/get tickets.

IMPORTANT: Please make sure you click through to the store's website for more information. All events are free, but some want you to RSVP, and many require a book purchase at the store to enter the signing line.

If we're not coming near you (boo, sorry!), you can still order signed books. Many of these stores will ship both domestically and internationally, so click to their websites and see if they can help! There's a good chance the stores will also have our backlists, so if your collections are missing any of our books, check to see whether the stores will have those in stock as well.

A couple other small notes:

Photos: We are happy to take photos with our readers, but sometimes, due to time and space, it isn't possible. We leave it up to individual bookstores as to whether or not we will be able to do this.

Gifts: Sometimes our sweet (adorable, thoughtful, smart, strong, other positive adjectives) readers want to bring gifts for us. Thank you! We love presents. We only ask that you keep in mind our limited luggage space. Small, squishable items are great. (We all knit. Just sayin'.)

And that's it! Let us know if you have any questions!

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU!!!

We're Coming to England!

Hi! We've been spending the past few months with our noses to the grindstone, finishing MY LADY JANE. We are happy to report that we have a first draft, and as of about a week ago we have notes from our lovely editor at HarperTeen, and we are working on the first round of serious revisions. In that spirit, we are coming to England to research the locations from the novel, to talk to some really smart Englishmen/women about the Lady Jane Grey, to have all-the-fun seeing the sights, and to finish Draft #2.

We're also doing a meet-and-greet with our British readers and fans! So yes, if you live in England, we'd love to meet you!

Here's the information:

Sunday, April 12th, we will be hanging out at a cafe called Le Pain Quotidien, starting at 2:30 p.m. and going until whenever they run out of cookies . . . er, biscuits.

The address is
15 Winchester Walk
London
SE1 9AG

and we're told it is right next to the Borough Market.

We are unbelievably excited about the whole thing. We love English history (duh), and we love traveling together, and we love getting to meet our readers. Win win win!

And yes, if you bring copies of our books, we would LOVE to sign them. We'll even break out the special pens.
