Percy Jackson essay by e wein... who'd a thunk it
I have an an essay on disability in the Percy Jackson series up at Smart Pop Books, here:
http://www.smartpopbooks.com/1136
It'll be there till Tuesday 11 Oct 2011, when it'll revert to excerpt mode. I am feeling smug about having had the foresight to update my Smart Pop bio to include CNV at least a year before I'd sold it.
-----------------------------------
There is a funny story behind my work for Smart Pop. When Benbella asked me if I'd like to write for them, I chose Percy Jackson because I'd heard rave reviews about The Lightning Thief and was curious. I'd never heard of the other series they invited me to write about, and when I checked it out I decided (with an eyeroll) that I didn't have the strength to be witty and intelligent about a high school vampire love story I was very likely to detest.
*facepalm*
From a strictly financial viewpoint, I SO REGRET this decision.
