Class with guest speakers

One of the things that I really enjoy about this class is the ability to talk with different authors about their books and their motivation for writing them. It was also interesting to see how the different authors deal with the problem of whether or not to publicize a book for young adults or for an adult audience and how the publisher is responsible for leading the author in the best direction so that the book has the most success.

  1. Yup it's a pretty big decision, but I really like what Barry said last night, that if you publish for adults you don't change lives.
