4. Lucy Green Eyes by Paulette Benjamin - 2013-04-22 03:23:47-04
   I was born in South Carolina but moved to New York when I was three years old. I went to Professional Children's School in NYC where I was exposed to the arts. Although I loved writing from the time that I was eight years old, the passion was fueled after I got into high school and college where I majored in it. Once I was old enough to hold a pencil correctly, I began writing stories about having a baby sister that I so badly yearned for. I'd write every night before bed until one day my mom told my older brother and me that she was going to have a baby. We were both beyond ecstatic, although my brother cried when we learned that the baby was a girl. I screamed for joy because I finally had my sister. Then about a year later, my mom gave us a little brother. Four years after that, we got another baby sister and two years later, another sister. Moral of the story: Be careful what you write for. The idea for Lucy Green Eyes came into thought in 1997. My mother would always talk about what her life was like as a young girl having to run from her strict grandmother's switches, and dodging dirty old men in the cotton field, outrunning trucks that'd be in hot pursuit and finding ways to become invisible to her molester. Then one day my sister and I said, "Hey Ma, your life can be a book." Hence the birth of Lucy Green Eyes.
   
5. ANIMAIA by Lee Rogers - 2013-04-22 03:25:48-04
   Lee Rogers is a former environmental consultant and manager and has a traditionally published book in the environmental sciences. A vegan athlete and animal rights advocate, the idea for ANIMAIA arose from speculating on the nature of a world (or nation) where the persecution of animals was abolished in similar fashion to that of human slavery, and of the consequences for society. Of course, a little magical realism and young adult antics helps bring the high-concept story to life.
