NWP Radio, in partnership with the Connecticut Writing Project at Fairfield and Penguin Random House Books, has launched a special series 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.
For this episode, our guests include Nic Stone, an Atlanta native and Spelman College graduate, and Connecticut educator Kim Herzog, a member of CWP-Fairfield. Nic Stone’s debut novel for young adults, Dear Martin, and her debut middle-grade novel, Clean Getaway, were both New York Times bestsellers. In this episode, Nic Stone and Kim Herzog are joined by Kristin Shultz, Penguin Random House, and hosts Tanya Baker from the National Writing Project and Bryan Ripley Crandall from CWP-Fairfield.
NWP’s The Write Time will “Write Out” this month by welcoming poet and author Nikki Grimes discussing her new children’s book A Walk in the Woods. She is interviewed by elementary school teacher Willeena Booker and Park Ranger Maryann Zujewski.
Hear Kate Dickerson, executive director of the Maine Discovery Museum and teacher-author Meghan Wilson Duff discuss their children’s book, How Are You, Verity?
This episode of The Write Time features activist, author, and Syrian asylee Luma Mufleh along with Connecticut Writing Project at Fairfield teacher-leaders Jessica Baldizon and William King.
