Imposter Syndrome and Other Confessions of Alejandra Kim follows a Korean-Argentinian teen's journey to understanding who she is. Through the comfort of her multicultural home in Queens to the hallways of her ultra-woke, elite prep school in Manhattan, Alejandra grapples with academics, the politics of school lunch, and even a microaggression from her own teacher. As author Patricia Park tells Here & Now's Robin Young, it's a story about how quickly the world is changing – and how conversations about race are, or aren't, keeping up.

One of the best ways to hold up the middle of your book is to concentrate on arcs: the rise and fall of your characters' internal and external worlds, the worlds of your other characters, as well as other arc possibilities: setting, mystery, theme, and much more. To help us think through tracing these arcs are authors Jennifer De Leon and Patricia Park.Also referenced in this episode: Benjamin Percy's Thrill Me and Matthew Salesses' Craft in the Real World.
