About Us

Ink and Pen
United States
The Ink & Penners are poets, novelists, librarians, critics, teachers, learners, and readers who all enjoy tea, trees, social justice, and of course, books! The Ink & Penners feel that there isn't nearly enough dialogue going on about diversity issues in children's & YA lit. So, they got sad, they got mad, and then they got going and made this blog (after nearly a year of talking about it). The Ink & Penners welcome your thoughts, suggestions, and kindly-worded critiques. Thank you for reading & for being a part of this community!
