RAR #256: My New Favorite Book for the Whole Family
Description
Gather your aspiring writers and littlest book lovers for this episode.
I am so excited to welcome back author Millie Florence to talk about the beautiful book we created together, Beyond Mulberry Glen.
Millie and I are chatting about the making of the book from inspiration to final draft with a series of fun questions from what scene was the hardest to write to what character she’d want to hang out with for an afternoon.
Beyond Mulberry Glen is a read-aloud novel for the whole family, featuring a gorgeous cover and illustrations by Astrid Sheckels. It’s Waxwing Books’s very first middle grade novel, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Why Millie describes her inspiration for the story as a collage of influences
- The challenges of editing the novel with the perspective of age and development as a writer
- What she loves most about middle-grade fiction
