Bookshop Interview with Author Merriam Saunders (Episode #074)

5/25/2020

0 Comments

 
In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Merriam Saunders discusses her two children’s picture books, My Wandering, Dreaming Mind and My Whirling, Twirling Motor. Merriam also has a middle grade novel releasing in early 2021. While all of books feature characters with ADHD, it is not the only thing Merriam writes about – but it is one thing she is passionate about. By day, Merriam is a licensed family therapist specializing in ADHD, as well as an adjunct professor of psychology. She didn’t set out to write books, although she loved writing stories as a kid, but she now sees her writing for young readers as an extension of her skills and passion for helping children. In this episode, Merriam discusses her writing journey, how she helped compile a database of kid lit books dealing with mental health issues on the website anovelmind.com, and how writing a fan letter as a kid to her favorite children’s book author changed her life forever, because that fan letter eventually led to Merriam meeting her husband.
