Hi, I'm Alex Bracken. I'm 26, live in NYC, and I'm an author who actually works in children's publishing. I reblog everything from interesting history tidbits, to fashion, to all of the great nerdy loves of my life.

THE DARKEST MINDS (Disney*Hyperion) is out now!. You can order it now! (That would be super swell.) Or, you can check out the excerpt and nifty things over on TheDarkestMinds.com. You can also follow me on Twitter, or like me on Facebook. You can find all TDM-related stuff on this Tumblr by clicking here.

Book 2, NEVER FADE, will be out on October 29, 2013. It's available for pre-order on Amazon (and Kindle). You can add it on GoodReads here!

I’ve always agreed with William Faulkner—he said that the human heart in conflict with itself is the only thing worth writing about. I’ve always taken that as my guiding principle, and the rest is just set dressing. I mean, you can have a dragon, you can have a science fiction story set on a distant planet with aliens and starships, you can have a western about a gunslinger, or a mystery novel about a private eye, or even literary fiction—and ultimately you’re still writing about the human heart in conflict with itself.
