In this episode, I interview Kimberly Newton Fusco, an accomplished author of children's literature, about her latest book, The Secret of Honeycake. We discuss the excitement of releasing a new book, the importance of character development, and the role of animals in storytelling. Kimberly shares her personal inspirations, the historical context of her writing, and her hope for young readers to find their own voices. The conversation also touches on the writing process, the significance of journaling, and the joy of family and nature.
