Creative Dynamos 018 - Writing YA Fiction With A Spiritual Slant, My Interview With Jacci Turner

from Creative Dynamos · host Scott Roche

Jacci Turner and I talk about her newest YA fantasy series, The Tree Singer series. Fifteen-year-old Mayten loves training as a tree singer, an esteemed position among her clan. But when she feels pain coming from the trees, she finds herself on an unexpected quest, one so dangerous she might never return home. Now Mayten must use her unfinished training to face betrayal, fear, and a deadly foe. Is she a match for the ancient evil attacking her trees or will the entire kingdom fall to ruin?We also talk about how our spirituality informs our choices as writers, and what it means to be a progressive Christian voice in that space. Jacci gives me some insight into her non-fiction work and her work in leading retreats.https://linktr.ee/Jacciturner
