How do young adult authors authentically explore the complexity of growing up? And how can their books help teenage readers find a home in the world beyond the page? In this virtual event, join young adult writers Ellen O’ Clover (Seven Percent of Ro Devereux) and Nicole Kronzer (The Roof Over Our Heads) for a candid discussion on what it takes to tap into the modern-day teenager through fiction, and how you can do it, too. A Q&A session will follow the conversation.
