Julie Murphy Confirms for #SIBA19

Julie Murphy is a potty-mouthed Southern belle who was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, but found her home in Fort Worth, Texas. She’s never seen Star Wars, but has yet to meet a made for TV movie she didn’t love. When she’s not writing, Julie can be found cruising Costco for free samples, watching Sister Act 2, stalking drag queens on Instagram, obsessing over the logistics of Mars One, and forever searching for the perfect slice of cheese pizza. She lives with her bearded husband, two vicious cats, and one Pomeranian that can pass as a bear cub. DUMPLIN’, her second young adult novel, was featured in #Trio16 and made into a delightful film on Netflix.  I could not be more excited to have Julie Murphy join us in Spartanburg, South Carolina with her first middle grade story: Dear Sweet Pea.
