Update: 2025-04-03
Description
I have the absolute pleasure of sitting down with the incredibly talented K.L. Walther, the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Summer of Broken Rules and her latest release, While We’re Young.We dive into so many fun topics, from her journey as an author (and how she went from writing her first manuscript in college to becoming a BookTok sensation) to her love for pop culture and how it influences her writing. We even geek out over one of our favorite movies, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, and how it inspired her latest book.KL also opens up about the challenges of writing, dealing with rejection, and how she stitches together her characters from real-life threads (without causing any family drama, thankfully!). Plus, we talk about the magic of BookTok, how it’s changed the game for authors, and what it’s like to have your book go viral.If you’re a fan of young adult romance, pop culture, or just love hearing about the behind-the-scenes of an author’s life, this episode is for you.
