Chapter 18 - Josh Allen

from The Story Station · host Emma Schellenberg

I really wish this would have been episode 13, because Josh Allen is a professional in writing unsettling, chilling short stories. Not quite so shocking as his stories is the fact he writes unsettling, chilling short stories for children ages 9-12. Josh talks about considering specific audiences, twisting tropes to make them your own, and writing with momentum. "Hiding," from Once They See You: 13 Stories to Shiver and Shock 2024, Josh Allen Read by permission of Holiday House Publishing, Inc.
