From Self-Publishing to Traditional Publishing: You Don’t Know What You Don’t Know
Manage episode 431204094 series 2952214
In this month’s bonus episode, Bianca interviews Kern Carter, author of And Then There Was Us.
They discuss the different routes to publication and the differences between traditional and self publishing; how Kern worked to improve his craft while trying to land an agent; the challenges of writing from a perspective that isn’t your own, and why you might choose to do so; how he approached characterization; the importance of nailing emotionality in YA novels; the supernatural elements of And Then There Was Us; trusting your editor and agent; how Kern pitches new ideas to his agent; and all his upcoming projects.
