Inspirational Indie Author Interview #67: Interview with Kate Woodard: Children's Author Breaks Language Barrier in Brazil

My guest this week is Kate Woodard, a children's-book author who did not let a language barrier stand in the way of connecting and communicating with young people. When Kate moved to Brazil, she spoke not a word of Portuguese. But through making local connections with schools and bookstores, her readers were able to find her and the language barriers were broken down. Every week I interview a member of ALLi to talk about their writing and what inspires them, and why they are inspiring to other authors.
