Weekly Geeks #24: Author Spotlight
Directions: 1. Choose a writer you like. 2. Using resources such as Wikipedia, the author’s website, whatever you can find, make a list of interesting facts about the author.
So here goes. I've decided to spotlight Clare B. Dunkle, since her book The Hollow Kingdom
is one of my absolute favorites.
- Her first four books were written as letters to her daughters who were (at that time) attending a German boarding school.
- She studied Russian literature in college and graduated in three years!
- Her newest book, The Sky Inside
, has a sequel due out next year, and is a nominated title for this year's Cybils awards. - Read my review of The Hollow Kingdom here
