Maurice Sendak is AWESOME!!!

So, my YA post for the week is a cheat, really... it's more about children's literature... and actually, I'm going to let Maurice Sendak and Steven Colbert say it. (Maurice Sendak, by the way... is AWESOME!!!)

Best line of this interview "I don't write for children... I write... and somebody says 'That's for children'"

I think that kind of writing produces the best books. It's one thing to market and hit a target demographic... but in the end you just gotta write your story.
