RAR #256: My New Favorite Book for the Whole Family


Listen Later

Gather your aspiring writers and littlest book lovers for this episode. 


I am so excited to welcome back author Millie Florence to talk about the beautiful book we created together, Beyond Mulberry Glen.


Millie and I are chatting about the making of the book from inspiration to final draft with a series of fun questions from what scene was the hardest to write to what character she’d want to hang out with for an afternoon.


Beyond Mulberry Glen is a read-aloud novel for the whole family, featuring a gorgeous cover and illustrations by Astrid Sheckels. It’s Waxwing Books’s very first middle grade novel, and we can’t wait to share it with you. 

In this episode, you’ll hear: 

  • Why Millie describes her inspiration for the story as a collage of influences
  • The challenges of editing the novel with the perspective of age and development as a writer
  • What she loves most about middle-grade fiction
