Hey guys,
Welcome back to the show! Sorry it's been a bit longer between our last episode and this one. The situation in Iran has been rather distressing and something that I've been preoccupied by.
In this episode we are talking to not only one young person but we are talking to two! Indeed, these two young girls may only be 13 and 14 years old but they are not only authors, they are published authors. Yes, you heard right, published authors!
In this part we talk all about Kirsten and Aiyven's relationship with reading. We learn that what started as a simple entry to the 'BBC's 500 words' competition turned into not only two fully published books but also inspired the girls' to create their very own subscription boxes ( more on that in Part 2 ;) As we discuss the girls' books, it's clear the girls are interested in very different genres and have strong opinions on each other's work!
We discuss young people's relationship with reading and the impact of social media like TikTok. It's interesting to hear Kirsten & Aiyven's views of TikTok and how the platform does have good in it with its authentic nature.
Join us in Part 2 where we discuss the girls' publishing journey & their very own subscription box, 'Happier Every Chapter' - see you there!
