Hi everyone!



YARWA, the Young Adult Chapter of the Romance Writers of America is now accepting proposals for workshops for the 2012-2013 membership year. Class openings are for February 2013 and beyond.



We are especially interested in workshops that are aimed at YA writers
 but ALL proposals are gladly…

This week we kick off a new topic: High School Regrets.

Lorie Langdon is first up with her post on the things she missed out on because she was too afraid to try, and how she's used that experience to become a fierce and formidable adult. http://honestlyya.blogspot.com/2012/01/nine-lives-of-lorie-langdon-have-you.html

And Renee Pace is in the Welcome Wednesday guest…

This week, on Honestly YA, Alicia McCalla writes movingly about her first interracial relationship that ended in tragedy. This one is definitely worth a visit and comment!

This week, it's my turn to explore my High School Hell - Struggling to fit in with the "in" crowd. How did peer pressure impact you back in the day?
