How I Made it to Eighteen will be coming out June 8, 2010. A date that has seemed so far away for so long and suddenly it’s almost here. As of today the book has had three reviews:

I will be at Mocca this weekend (April 10 - 11). Mostly you’ll be able to find me at the First Second table with MINI COMICS!!!! I’ve never made a mini comic before. This mini is an excerpt from How I Made it to Eighteen which is coming out June 8, 2010.
On Sunday April 11 I’ll be on this panel at 4:30:
YA? Why not!
Young Adult graphic novels are swiftly gaining popularity among librarians, teachers, and most importantly, young readers! Join Hope Larson (Chiggers, Mercury), Jillian Tamaki (Skim), Raina Telgemeier (Smile, Baby-sitters Club), and Tracy White (How I Made it to Eighteen) for a discussion about their work, their influences, and their audience.
Moderated by The Beat’s Heidi MacDonald.
