Jennifer Blecher, CAMP FAMOUS and SUDDENLY FAMOUS

Zibby and a special guest host (her younger daughter!) welcome beloved middle grade author Jennifer Blecher to discuss her books CAMP FAMOUS and its sequel SUDDENLY FAMOUS. They talk about the magic of summer camp and creative ways to bring books to life beyond the page, brainstorming everything from filming DIY YouTube shorts to launching grassroots marketing at sleepaway camps. Jennifer also shares behind-the-scenes stories of her own camp days, how her daughters inspire her writing, her journey into self-publishing, and the joys and challenges of writing for kids.Purchase on Bookshop:Camp Famous: https://bit.ly/3EZF5usShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!** Want more?
