“I cannot do an interview without talking about who I come from as it pertains to the writers who have influenced my work because their fingerprints are all over [it].” - Elizabeth AcevedoIn an interview, we may hear Elizabeth Acevedo's singular voice, but she assures us she is not alone. Elizabeth reminds us that she is part of a lineage and an amalgamation of many voices. She, like all of us, represents those who came before her, those whose books she devours, those who have shaped her life, and those who inspire her. A Greek chorus, if you will. In fact, when I asked Elizabeth about her personal journey, she called on her community and family at every phase—the community that raised her and continues to nurture her. Elizabeth credits everyone, from the neighborhood boys who encouraged her to spit bars at the local corner store to the teacher-mentors, with being essential to her rise as a critically acclaimed author and international slam poet star.Elizabeth Acevedo is a beloved poet and author, celebrated for winning prestigious honors like the National Book Award, the Prinz Medal, and the Pura Belpré Award. She also held the title of Young People's Poet Laureate. And on a personal note, she is one of my all-time favorite authors. Elizabeth is renowned for her young adult novels, including "The Poet X," "Clap When You Land," and "With The Fire on High," along with her recent adult novel, "Family Lore." Her writing vividly explores her Afro-Latina heritage, delving into themes of identity, family, and the relentless pursuit of dreams.In this episode, we discuss Elizabeth's secret mentors (and mentees), and some of the spurns she has encountered within the literary community. She reminisces about Friday nights in her apartment building, reflects on the importance of names, and ruminates about what her future may hold. She even shares her original rap name!***True to her poetry roots, in her reading challenge, "Novels Through Poems" Elizabeth has compiled a list of books that are just that tell stories through poetry.

Some of her fondest childhood memories involve long afternoons at the library and then reading late into the night. More than ten years ago, she began journaling about the books she read and turned that passion into writing about books. Her first forays were as a guest reviewer on a friend's blog, but she soon realized she wanted to be reviewing and talking about books on a blog of her own. From there, Novel Visits was born. That was in 2016 and, though the learning curve was steep, she loves being a part of the book community. Novel Visits focuses on new novel reviews (print and audio), previews of upcoming releases, and musings on all things bookish.

Flight 587, which inspired this week's book, was the second deadliest aviation crash in history. It occurred just two months and one day after 9/11 and rocked families from NYC to the Dominican Republic. Today, we're diving into the details of that historic tragedy. Then it's on to our book, a unique novel written in poetic stanzas: A tragedy in the sky forces two girls and their families on the ground to unpack their secrets, carry them across waters, and breathe life into a truth they've desperately tried to ignore. The girls: Camino and Yahaira The book: Clap when you land by Elizabeth Acevedo And you're listening to LIT Society.

In Episode 94, Gen and Jette discuss their latest book club book — Clap When You Land by Elizabeth Acevedo. We couldn't stop talking about the style and structure of this novel written in verse. Acevedo writes such a full and vivid narrative even with her pared back style and we're in awe. Show Notes Keep an eye out for Elizabeth Acevedo's newest book, still untitled, expected to be released next year. Yahaira's wonderful girlfriend's name is Dre and we love her makeshift fire escape garden. We absolutely loved the way Acevedo used the visual layout of the words on the page to emphasize different words, phrases, and scenes. It got us thinking back to our episode about Because the Sun by Sarah Burgoyne. Our next book club book is the thriller Home Before Dark by Riley Sager. We'll be discussing it in our first episode of July. Next episode we'll be doing another genre breakdown, this time talking science fiction. It's a genre that covers a lot of ground and we can't wait to dive in.

In Episode 93, Gen and Jette kick off their graphic novel book club with Fun Home by Alison Bechdel. This graphic novel memoirs chronicles Bechdel's complex relationship with her father, and she does it with nuance, honesty, and humour. It's a fantastic read and we nerd out a lot on literature, as well as the graphic novel form. Show Notes: Fun Home was adapted as a musical and won a Tony Award for Best Musical in 2015. After finishing Fun Home, we both immediately wanted to read Are You My Mother?, Bechdel's second graphic novel memoir that chronicles, you guessed it, her relationship with her mother. We go off on a few literary tangents (as you do) and ponder James Joyce, the Fitzgeralds, the Alcotts, and Thoreau, among others. You may recognize Bechdel's name from the famous Bechdel test, wherein a movie will pass the test so long as two female characters speak to each other about something other than a man.

In this episode I'm speaking with https://twitter.com/teachals (Amy Staniforth). Amy is an Acting Head of Department, Assistant Principal and co-author of the amazing https://www.amazon.com/Ready-Teach-compendium-knowledge-resources/dp/1912906910 (Ready to Teach Macbeth. ) We discuss: 1. The best text Amy's ever read, taught or been taught 2. What kind of timescale and process goes into planning the books in her ‘Ready to teach…' series 3. What made Amy and Stuart choose Macbeth and A Christmas Carol and whether the guides are written with any particular Key Stage in mind 4. How Amy approaches a significant extract of a play or novel with her students 5. One area of practice she'd like to improve on 6. The texts Amy's department covers at Key Stage 3 and why 7. And lastly, when we can expect Ready to Teach A Christmas Carol to be ready With Twitter always ready to offer an incredibly diverse and insightful amount of reading material, I hope I managed to convey to Amy the outstanding effect that Ready to Teach Macbeth has had on my teaching and its place as an outstanding resource for English teachers around the world. I imagine that my anticipation for Ready to Teach A Christmas Carol is also shared by all those who are lucky enough to be familiar with Amy and Stuart's work and are looking forward to reading it later this year.

My personal favorite Goodreads list Clap When You Land is on is Diversify Your Bookshelves. Happy Reading Everyone Today’s Library Tidbit comes to us from Hilary and is all about augmented reality. Augmented reality is a technology that bridges the physical world and the digital world. Unlike virtual reality which completely replaces the users reality, augmented reality changes or enhances only part of the users reality. This is done most often by changing the visual or auditory stimuli that the user is receiving from the world around them, but augmented reality can also be done using haptic perception, scent, and the somatosensory system. Haptic perception is the body’s ability to recognize objects through exploratory touch. The somatosensory system is the body’s conscious perception of touch, pressure, pain, temperature, position, movement, and vibration. At it’s most basic level augmented reality works by taking in data and then manipulating that data onto a display. There are different set ups, but for every single one an operating system, a computer or a smartphone, takes in data using one or more cameras. The information is then processed through software and the manipulated data is presented back to the user on a display of some sort, typically onto a screen. To make more realistic augmented reality more than just visual data is needed. The operating system must also be able to sense depth, light, motion, and location and to be able to interact and feed that information back to the user. This is why only new generations of smartphones are able to provide augmented reality to users. There are 3 ways that users can use augmented reality. Through devices, smart phones, tablets, etc, using a PC or connected TV players, or through a head mounted display and glasses. Contact lenses are in the works but are not yet available. Each different system type has it’s advantages and disadvantages. Devices and be cumbersome to continually hold. PC and TV webcameras can be in inconvenient places making it tricky to get the view correct. And head mounted displays can be uncomfortable with long time use. Additionally a common side effect in using augmented reality is nausea or motion sickness. There are a lot of different applications for augmented reality. The field that most of us will use is entertainment. However, augmented reality has been applied to industrial use, psychiatric use, medical use, technological use, and military use. One of the earliest augmented reality uses was in flight simulators for military training purposes. Recent years have seen the use of augmented reality in therapies for individuals who have suffered neurological injuries. Patients with spinal injuries that received augmented reality therapy show mostly positive outcomes. Medical uses for augmented reality is newer than some other fields of use but the outcome of it is positive. While Pokemon Go was certainly not the first augmented reality game it was the first to become explosively popular worldwide. This game, and other augmented reality games like it, use your phones cameras and location to allow the player to catch pokemon, battle other users, and gain in game items. Along the same lines a lot of museums, art galleries, and heritage sites are using augmented reality to supplement docent tours.

We had the ABSOLUTE pleasure of talking to our friend Sara from @agradstudentreadsforfun. Not only does she have the best pre-gay journal entries, but she's super brilliant and in a PhD program and going to change student's lives (We know it. We manifest this truth). Maybe she ruined a library book with coffee, told a funny story about her girlfriend looking up Miley pics, and travels with her pothos Luna belted into her car (safety first), but we can't really say for sure. Listen to the episode and find out. Sara recommends Felix Ever After by Karen Callendar, Magic For Liars by Sarah Gailey, Stars and the Blackness Between Them by Junauda Petrus, The Prettiest Star by Carter Sickels, Clap When You Land by Elizabeth Acevedo, and The Grief Keeper by Alexandra Villasante. Follow her for more amazing books and bookstagrammer recommendations - she's really great at hyping everything and everyone up!

Black Lives Matter. A note from Jessica: Here at The Manuscript Academy, we're all about real, authentic conversations that accomplish something important. Here are some resources to help you get started on becoming a better ally--how to support your friends, have difficult conversations with your relatives, and learn more about the cultural moment happening right now. (It's our hope that history books will remember this as the moment it all, finally, got better.) This is all a long, ongoing process, and as you'll hear, we are still on our own journeys. We're doing our best, and sharing what we've learned along the way. A note from Julie: Along with the rest of the country, we watched helplessly as the murder of George Floyd ignited our country. As always at the Manuscript Academy, we asked ourselves, “How can we help?” Join us for this podcast where Jessica gives advice on the best way to support our Black writers and friends during this difficult time, great podcasts to listen to, and more. Julie will talk books by Black writers that she really enjoyed (and that you must immediately put on your list) and great books for kids by Black writers brought to us via school librarian and author Cameron Rosenblum. We discuss some of our favorite recent books by Black authors: Clap When You Land by Elizabeth Acevedo, A Good Kind of Trouble - Lisa Moore Ramée, and You Should See Me in a Crown by Leah Johnson. Then we head into a first pages podcast with a page by the talented RAOWordplay.

Elizabeth Acevedo is a poet and novelist whose books are alive with Dominican-American and Afro- Caribbean culture and community and have at their centers teenage girls learning to navigate life, relaxing into and pushing against their upbringings. A National Poetry Slam Champion, Liz's second book The Poet X won the National Book Award for young people's literature in 2018. (And in case you haven't read it—and if you haven't, you should-- The Poet X is a novel in verse that tells the story of 15 year-old Xiomara as she wrestles with her mother's expectations and discovers herself through slam poetry.) Since The Poet X, Elizabeth Acevedo has written two more highly acclaimed books: With the Fire on High, a novel told in prose about Emoni a high school student who's a mother and who's also determined to become a chef. And now, most recently, Clap When You Land -- once again a novel in verse—that has as its jumping off point a tragic plane crash, the lies and secrets it reveals, and what's lost and what's found in the face of terrible grief. Clap When You Land looks at family and community across two cultures from the perspective of two generations of women—all fierce, capable and imperfect. Elizabeth Acevedo is as lively and charismatic a guest as she is a writer. In this podcast, she talks about her own family who inflamed her imagination with stories, her love for the Dominican Republic even as she understands its flaws, the profound difficulty of uprooting oneself and leaving one country for another, and the challenges and joy of having deep connections to multiple worlds.
National Book Award winner & best-selling author Elizabeth Acevedo is on the podcast to talk about dealing with the success of The Poet X, audio books, and her newest book CLAP WHEN YOU LAND.
