About Maureen

Hi, I'm Maureen Johnson. I'm a YA author. I started this site because a realized a lot of my friends who are also YA authors were big Obama supporters. And I thought to myself, 'Wouldn't it be great it we all had a place where we could write about Obama? And if we invited everyone to join?'
