E8: Jessica Vitalis: Coyote Queen
from Kidlit Love: Conversations with Picture Book and Middle Grade Authors · host Stephanie Affinito
I have added another name to my ‘Favorite Middle Grade Authors’ list in my book journal: Jessica Vitalis. She’s written The Wolf’s Curse, The Rabbit’s Curse and Coyote Queen. Today, we talk about the power of middle grade novels, the appeal of a bit of magic and how books can help us learn so many life lessons. Plus, I learned a new word that describes her writing life: she’s a plantser. You’ll have to listen to find out what that means!You’ll find the show notes for the episode with links to all of the books and resources mentioned right here. Join me inside my Facebook community for bookish people! There, we talk about all things books and reading and writing and notebooking, too!
