Introducing Emily: Our New Blog Contributor

| | Comments (0)
I'm very excited to announce the arrival of a new contributor to Shen's Blog, my good friend and industry colleague, Emily Jiang. Emily will drop by from time to time with multicultural thoughts, book reviews, and random musings. It will be great fun to hear from someone else every once in a while (as opposed to me all the time), and what I'm looking forward to the most is hearing her thoughts about multicultural literature from a writer's point of view.

More about Emily:
An avid reader and writer of YA and children's fiction, Emily Jiang received a B.A. in English from Rice University, where she studied creative writing, multicultural literature and Victorian literature. Currently living in the San Francisco Bay Area, Emily is the recipient of a fiction teaching fellowship and the Agnes Butler Scholarship in the M.F.A. program in creative writing at St. Mary's College of California. Her multicultural fiction has received various honors, including the Kimberly Colen Memorial Grant, Grand Prize at the Olympiad of the Arts Festival, and the Sue Alexander Award for Most Promising New Manuscript.

Welcome, Emily!
