DIRTY. EMERGING WRITERS NETWORK


(sorry kelly, i know you hate this pic. you still love me, yes?)

DAN WICKETT said some very cool things about THE NATIONAL VIRGINITY PLEDGE over at the EMERGING WRITERS NETWORK. Here's a line or two:

"His characters beg to be watched, no matter how dirty you might feel when you occasionally realize that that's what you're doing, reading faster and faster to watch them."

He also says great things about other books in the same post:

just ordered Virginity Pledge on Tuesday. I'm really looking forward to reading it.

I seem to always be a month or two behind on these things.
