I'm sure it was profound, too, but can be summed up like so: Yes. Absolutely. You are spot-on, as always, Loretta!<br /><br />And as an aside, I can't imagine that poor Libba, with her two broken elbows, is able to grab anyone right now.

It reminds me of being in high school when you were positive everyone would remember that you wore the *gasp* same shirt two weeks ago, but really everyone else was walking around freaking that you would notice that they *gasp* rewore the same jeans that week! It's really, really ridiculous when you lay it all out like this. <br /><br />Had SOOOOO much fun this weekend. When can we do that again???lisa and laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18144863275895761642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475900551272388329.post-34145191357735247352011-03-07T11:01:18.045-08:002011-03-07T11:01:18.045-08:00Haha YA Mafia?

...Haha YA Mafia? That's ridic. Too much drama! <br /><br />Also, congrats on your yoga class! I love my self-defense class too. No one passes judgment. We're all in this together. Unlike the YA Mafia, workout classes are pretty drama-free in my experience :)Judehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04587172836433015426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475900551272388329.post-89660634445677464432011-03-07T09:23:04.177-08:002011-03-07T09:23:04.177-08:00Great post!

However, for the time I've been a participant in the YA community, I haven't seen many. I have seen a lot of kindness, generosity, and thoughtfulness, though<br /><br />I also think there is a clique mentality with some YA groups and authors. I mean, we write about high school, which is full of cliques...it kinda makes sense.Katie Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11542035499311859866noreply@blogger.com
