Hey there, it’s Lily. So, I’m a children’s/MG writer, and I love writing for that particular audience because I grew up reading a lot of MG stories.

@imwritehere1920 – I’ve not seen the movie yet, but I want to! Also, for some reason I said The One And Only Ivan when I meant The One And Only Bob. TOAOI was amazing and beautiful, but TOAOB was masterful. As a sequel it is extraordinarily deep and meaningful, far surpassing its predecessor in my opinion.
Also, I have not yet read either of…[Read more]

@noah-cochran – Thank you!
@imwritehere1920 – Hey there! I’m technically an SE oldie, but I was young back then. The most influential of the middlegrade books I’ve recently read was The One And Only Ivan, by Katherine Applegate. It had me tearing up several times along the way, and even sniffling at one point. What’s a middlegrade book you like a…[Read more]

@josiah Thank you for the advice! I appreciate all that you do for SE members, and, though I don’t often have time to be active on the SE forum, the influence you and the other staff members have had on me over the past few months through the podcast, summit recordings, and emails has been invaluable. Thank you so much!
