Minisode: An Interview with "My Storied Year" Author Katie Proctor

Katie Proctor, author

Today’s spoiler-free minisode includes a conversation between Kaytee and author Katie Proctor. Katie is the author of My Storied Year, her debut novel about a middle grade boy with dyslexia. This is the first time I’ve gotten to have an interview with someone I am already friends with, and it was a delight! Tune in to hear about:

• Creating characters from a collection of people

• Cover design and desires

• Middle grade authors who make us cry

• NaNoWriMo

• Writing groups for obligers

• Found family stories
