Check it out! No, literally

I've been informed by a Kansas City source--we'll call her "Operative A"--that "From the Depths" is in my hometown library system. I think that's pretty cool.

Who knows why? Maybe it's just because I remember tearing through the young adult section at Mid-Continent Public Library (for those of you living further north in K.C., don't worry; it's also in the KCMO system) and like the idea of some other gangly kid discovering thrilling fiction. Or maybe it's because my name is officially in a card catalog someplace.

Now, if some student at Center High School can just do a book report on me, I think I can call my writing career a success.
