I was like… “I would like to be friends with this person.” And now here we are years later. I loved it so much and kept seeing her talking about all the music I listen to on the ol’ Twitter. How did your paths cross?Įric: It’s true! I initially got to know Lauren when I got sent an early copy of her first book, The Night We Said Yes. We know that you were good friends with each other before putting Battle Of The Bands together. I (fact two) live in Orlando, FL, with my husband and daughters. Lauren: Thank you for having us! Okay, so along with writing YA books and such, I’m a (fact one) public librarian where I spend too much time reading picture books and singing (badly) to little kids. And… I enjoy video games? Does that help? I’m married and have a gorgeous little kid who takes up the other 90% of my heart (10% is reserved for books). Welcome to The Honey POP, and thank you so much for the opportunity to talk to you about this beautiful anthology! Can we get to know both of you a little better? Who are Eric Smith and Lauren Gibaldi? Bonus points if you give us three fun facts about yourselves!Įric: Thank you! Oh goodness, three fun facts about myself that say who I am? Well, my life basically revolves around books, writing them, and working on them in my life as a literary agent. So, no need to wait more! Let us introduce you to two amazing people. We have talked about how they met, how the idea came into life, its process, and their upcoming projects. This idea, of course, captivated us, and we wanted to talk to Eric Smith and Lauren Gibaldi about this incredible book surrounded by music. So we don’t only witness the band members’ lives that are playing in Battle Of The Bands, but we are able to see the life behind the scenes. Order the book here! As you read the book, you get fascinated by the thought of how different people experience the same event in a completely different way. It is an excellent representation of real life. This is what makes Battle Of The Bands so unique.
