The Yarn is Headed to #NCTE16

Colby: The National Council for Teachers of English Annual Conference is one of my favorite conferences. Last year, in Minneapolis, I spent the Saturday of NCTE conducting interviews. I interviewed book creators non-stop from 8 AM until 4 PM. It was a rewarding and exhausting day. This year I’m spreading things out a bit more.
If you are attending the conference, I hope our paths will cross.
I’ll be interviewing the following book creators during the conference for future Unraveller episodes.
Nora Baskin
Donna Gephart
Margarita Engle
Deborah Freedman
Jason Reynolds
Ali Benjamin
Mike Lowery
