Bethany Mangle is the author of PREPPED, her debut YA contemporary novel. It is about a young girl growing up in a doomsday community. 

We also discuss:

• writing diverse/female characters
• the importance of signing with an agent who gets you, who has your best interests as a priority in your relationship. 
• editing with her agent
• how it feels to be a debut author
• what happens after you get the call that your book has sold
• her experience with other adults not understanding why she writes for a younger audience

ALSO, You’ll want to hear about her first book that has yet to be published.

A note from the recording: Miss Snark doesn’t appear to be an early iteration of Janet Reid and Query Shark. But I didn’t research this beyond going to the miss snark website and reading through the first few posts.
