Lauren Myracle interview

Lauren Myracle, the oft-challenged author of such books as ttyl, Bliss, and the new Peace, Love & Baby Ducks, sits down with Booklist to discuss why libraries “rule the world,” how she handles angry emails from parents, and the Stephen King influences behind Bliss. Myracle also touches on how her early experiences as a middle school teacher convinced her she was “a crappy human being”—but at least gave her plenty of stories to tell.
