You guys! It can finally be announced: I’m part of a YA anthology of stories centered around pretty much my favorite food ever, pizza. (Make mine pepperoni and pineapple, please.) “A Pizza My Heart: An Anthology” was conceived by the awesome Jolene Haley, who went ahead and did all the work of bringing together writers and putting the thing together because she loves pizza that damn much.
The tagline is also one of my favorite things ever: “Sometimes spicy, sometimes cheesy, but always delicious, A Pizza My Heart invites you to explore life, happiness, and the pursuit of pizza.” No spoilers on whether my story is spicy or cheesy, but let’s just say I managed to work in both zombies and boys in love.
The book is out Nov. 12, and you’ll want to grab a slice right away. Check out this lineup:
