Mary Morris's novels, short story collections, and travel memoirs have won great acclaim. She's been awarded the Rome Prize and has won awards and fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts. Her travel memoirs include Nothing to Declare: Memoirs of a Woman Traveling Alone, Wall to Wall: From Beijing to Berlin by Rail, and, most recently, The River Queen. For acheiving near legendary status in the literary world, Mary is one of the most approachable writers we've ever met.
If humans could be therapy pets, we'd most certainly want regular visits from Ayun Halliday. The author of the laugh-out-loud books, The Big Rumpus, Dirty Sugar Cookies, Job Hopper, and No Touch Monkey! She pens the "Mother Superior" column for Bust magazine and is the founder, editor-in-chief, head writer, and chief primatologist of the East Village Inky.
