🎥 New podcast interview with Sabaa Tahir
My guest today is Sabaa Tahir, National Book Award winner, Printz Award winner, and New York Times Bestselling author.
Sabaa is one of the most generous authors I know for giving advice to up-and-coming writers. I’ve known her since before either of us were published, and even with her current success and fame, she remains the same warm-hearted soul.
Today we talk about:
writing the stories unique to you
maintaining self-esteem and confidence as a writer
how the National Book Award and Printz Award have changed her career, and so much more
✍🏼 And don’t forget about our $1,000 Scholarships for Aspiring Writers (more info here).
And now onto the show!
