My friend Kate Inglis lives the kind of life you imagine all talented writers of fantastical children’s books live: in an old sea captain’s house on a wild, windy coast with a history of rumrunners.

So join us today as we talk about what it’s like to grow up in a multiracial, multinational family, struggling with what it means to be American, and why a hookah and mint tea on the patio is one of the pleasures of life.
