b'
Marissa chats with Melissa de la Cruz about her newest middle grade fantasy - NEVER AFTER - as well as how much to plan (or not to plan) when writing a series; how the simple act of having fun while writing can alter the narrative voice; keeping the joy of writing alive many books into your career, while avoiding the negativity that can sometimes feel ubiquitous in the industry; and the brilliant idea of paying your kids should they give you a useful idea for your novel (I'll be stealing that one for sure).
