About this Event

Bring your authentic self to our first ever Ask Me Anything event, moderated by a superstar drag queen. Join our panel of talented YA authors as they answer your questions about growing up queer, writing young adult novels, and sharing their own favourite queer creators.

Each author's books will be available for purchase and signing after the session.

For YA readers and fans aged 15 – 35(ish) who are looking for connection, chatter and community. Bookings essential.
