Middle Grade Ninja

Jodi Lynn Anderson and I talk about her career as an editor for Harper Collins before becoming a bestselling author as well as her new middle grade series, THIRTEEN WITCHES. We discuss writing in a diary to help make sense of the world, gaining the confidence to write fiction through working in publishing, her lifelong fascination with ghosts, living with sequel possibilities and thinking of characters as old friends, the importance of being yourself, the importance of imagining a finished novel, hearing voices in your head, and so much more.
