NWP Radio, in partnership with the Connecticut Writing Project at Fairfield, launched a special series in 2020 called “The Write Time” where writing teachers from across the NWP Network interview young-adult and children’s authors about their books, their composing processes, and writers’ craft. The series continues today, engaging authors, poets, and illustrations in conversation with teachers and students.
