Writer Wednesday: The Story Behind Good Enough

Writer Wednesday: The Story Behind Good Enough

Are Yoo Good Enough? 🙂

Welcome to my weeklong blog celebration of the June 2011 paperback release of my YA novel GOOD ENOUGH (HarperCollins ’08, paperback ’11).

The paperback version of my YA novel GOOD ENOUGH (HarperCollins ’08) is out today, June 7, 2011! GOOD ENOUGH was a 2009 Honor Book for the Asian/Pacific American Award for Literature, a 2009 Cooperative Children’s Book Center Choice, and one of the 2009 Most Humorous YA Books by the New York Public Library, as well as a finalist for the South Carolina YA Book Award and the Missouri Gateways Readers Award. It is currently a finalist for the 2011-12 Nebraska Golden Sower Award!

Today’s Writer Wednesday blog is a collection of interviews I’ve done about the book so you can find out more about the behind-the-scenes process of how the book was written and became published. Grateful thanks again to these amazing bloggers who helped spread the word about the novel when it came out in hardcover 2008.

    It’s been a long (fieldtrip) day and nearing bedtime for me, so I’ve only read 2 of the links, but I want to thank you for the inspiration and the insights on being an Asian American writer – the part about finding one’s voice after exorcising one’s ethnic background is particularly pertinent. 🙂
