Today, I am proud to have a guest post in Lindsey Leavitt’s monthlong series, “The Impact Initiative.”\u00a0 Her middle-grade novel, Princess for Hire<\/em>, has a theme of making an impact on people, and to integrate that into own life, Lindsey invited fellow writers onto her blog to talk about things that have made an impact on them.\u00a0\u00a0 She’s also giving away copies of her book, and I have kicked in a Nice and Mean<\/em> as well.\u00a0 So you can go and be enlightened and win free stuff.\u00a0 Not bad for an internet break!<\/p>\n

A note about Lindsey: first, she has one of the funniest writing voices on the web.\u00a0 I’m sure\u00a0you’ll agree when you check out her blog.\u00a0 Second,\u00a0at any good bookstore, you will find me and Lindsey together.\u00a0 No, not in person, although if could clone ourselves and be constantly selling our books–cool.\u00a0 (Or creepy?\u00a0 Yeah, no, definitely creepy.)\u00a0 I just meant that she is LEAvitt and I am LEAder, and our books like to hang out together, as pictured below.<\/p>\n

I must confess that I hadn’t read many Impact Initiative entries until last night, when I sat down to write mine, but ohh!\u00a0 These are seriously good pieces.\u00a0 They’re diverse and true and memorable.\u00a0 I encourage you to go read them all, and then pressure Lindsey to turn them into a book.\u00a0 Because I know she doesn’t have a lot going on right now.\u00a0 (Kidding!\u00a0 Kidding!)<\/p>\n

Thanks, Lindsey, for making an impact on me.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now, go read<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
