Bookshop Interview with Author Michelle R. Young (Episode #159)

7/27/2022

0 Comments

 
In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Michelle R. Young discusses her latest young adult novel, Soul Cogs. It is the second installment in Michelle’s Gear Heart sci fi series set in Victorian England with a distinct steampunk vibe. This book picks up where the first book left off, and the characters are on the run during a very dangerous time. You can expect new characters and lots of new adventures for the both the heroes and the villains. Michelle describes Soul Cogs as being a roller coaster, not just for the reader, but for her as a writer. The book went through numerous drafts, and Michelle incorporated lots of input from her beta readers, who she credits with keeping the characters consistent and the story on track. In this episode, I’ll chat with Michelle about her writing journey, how she worked on developing her main characters both at their best and at their worst, and the community of writers that have become one of her favorite parts of being an author.

Bookshop Interview with Author C.M. Newell (Episode #158)

7/13/2022

In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author C.M. Newell discusses her Unwanted series. The final installment of the series, Sacred (Book Three), was released earlier this year. This young adult fantasy series features a teenage girl who discovers she is not only descended from a long line of Wiccans, but she is the heir to their royal crown. Cassie wanted to write a fairytale that was not a damsel-in-distress story, but rather one where the female lead was on equal footing with her male counterpart. Finishing this series with Sacred was not simply the culmination of the character’s journey. Cassie also felt it was her own coming-of-age as a writer. In this episode, I’ll chat with Cassie about her writing journey, how she works as a writing coach to help other authors, and what it was like to undertake a rebranding of her work as she retired her pen name.
