Summer Lit Camp
My amazing publicist is setting up events for Grounded For all Eternity, and I’m very excited to announce that I will be part of Lit Camp this summer! I have so many fond memories of summers at my town library. With no school I had nothing but hours of reading to do and I would take out a dozen books a week. I remember a new staff member once try to talk me out of the number of books I was borrowing and the librarian interrupted and said, “Oh no, it’s ok. She’ll go through them.” And I did. Every week. If I had been able to join a summer book club, where not only did I get to read new books, but I then got to talk to the author about them? I would have JUMPED at the chance to sign up.
It’s going to be 90 degrees today, and there’s a warm breeze coming through my office window, and I’m hit with such a strong summer memory of wet bathing suits, popsicles and an open book on my towel. I’m thrilled to be participating in Lit Camp, and I hope the kids love Malachi, and books in general, as much as I do.

Darcy Marks is a lifelong reader who learned to walk quite well with a book in front of her face, thank you very much. She lives in Vermont with her husband, three genre-defying kids, a very needy cat and an extremely friendly former racehorse, where she writes rebellious fantasy books for kids. When she’s not reading or writing she explains math and science to lawyers as a forensic toxicologist and used her several black belts to help found The Safety Team, a non-profit changing the world and smashing the patriarchy one step at a time. She is the author of GROUNDED FOR ALL ETERNITY and other snarky books for kids.
