In this episode of the Middle Grade Matters podcast, authors Marissa Meyer and Joanne Levy discuss their new holiday-themed middle grade book Let It Glow. They also talk about the origins of The Happy Writer Podcast, the differences between writing for young adult and middle grade audiences, their collaborative writing process, the joy they hope to impart to young readers, and their personal journeys as writers. They share insights on audiobook narration, their daily routines, and upcoming projects, while also reflecting on their favorite middle grade books and offering advice to aspiring writers.
