Letter From The Editor

Original author: issue 11 / April 2013
Dear Reader,
 
This month, we have lots of exciting new content for you at YAMag, plus some other interesting developments: we interviewed quite a few people in the YA universe, like outspoken DJ Josh LeCash, star of the Slamdance sensation Rebel Rebel Rebel.  LeCash spoke to us about his wild ride working with some of Hollywood’s musical legends (such as Katy Perry and Adam Levine).  On the literary side, eccentric author (and improv artist) DC Pierson told us about his unique daily routine and shared more about his writing process.  Check out his new book entitled Crap Kingdom (yes, you heard that right)!

As for me, this month was all about launching our new review process, and discovering many new details surronding one of my personal favorite YA titles, Divergent by Veronica Roth.  The film version of this incredible book is sure to be a huge hit.  Take our Poll and choose who you think will make the best ‘Four’ aka ‘Tobias’, and check out which of your favorite actors was chosen to play the lead in our Casting Call.  The Casting Call is a brand new column at YAMag, to be displayed each month, keeping you up to date on who’s playing what and when!

I’d also like to take this oppurtunity to thank each and every one of our readers, followers and fans for making YAMag such a huge success.  We always welcome and encourage feedback, so please tell us what you think!

Here’s hoping it isn’t too early to say it: Happy Spring to one and all!
