    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
