A Storyteller, not a Pornographer

Link to June 22 Blogging Censorship post, "Interview with Brent Hartinger, author of challenged book, Geography Club".

Excerpt: Kids’ Right To Read’s Jaime Chosak interviewed Brent Hartinger, author of the young adult novel Geography Club. Parents recently asked for the removal of the book from shelves in the West Bend Public Library in Wisconsin.

Huh, I'll have to read that interview. I called up Hartinger to interview him on camera about the the two books and the recent brouhaha. The interview went fine - although Hartinger likes too talk forever - but I screwed up and did not get the thing recorded.
