In a little over a month, Adventures in YA Publishing will be turning a whopping 2,000 days old. Two thousand! That’s almost five and a half years spent chronicling journeys in publishing, and over two and a half thousand posts written to help writers along the way.
That’s a lot of awesome, useful content! But sadly so much of it has been lost to the depths of the archive and rarely sees the light of day.
We’re changing that. On the middle Sunday of the month, for the next thirteen months, we’ll be highlighting the very best of the AYAP archives, freshly brought up into the light and organised especially to be useful to you on your publishing journey.
It’s our goal that these posts will serve as gateways to the wealth of knowledge stored on the Adventures in YA Publishing site.
Check the full list of posts below: the links will be updated as each collection is posted.

by Elizabeth Paulson
Hardcover
Scholastic Press
Released 8/25/2015
It’s a fairy-tale nightmare . . .
One girl is kept in a room where every day the only food she’s given is a poisoned apple. Another is kept in a room covered in needles — and if she pricks her finger, she’ll die. Then there are the brother and sister kept in a cell that keeps getting hotter and hotter. . .
A sinister kidnapper is on the loose in Kate’s world. She’s not involved until one day she heads to her grandmother’s house in the woods — and finds her grandmother has also been taken. Already an outcast, Kate can’t get any help from the villagers who hate her. Only Jack, another outsider, will listen to what’s happened.
Then a princess is taken, and suddenly the king is paying attention — even though the girl’s stepmother would rather he didn’t. It’s up to Kate and Jack to track down the victims before an ever after arrives that’s far from happy.
