Podcasts about swoon reads

We had the absolute honor of speaking with associate editor, Ruqayyah Daud, at Little, Brown Books for Young Readers. Not only is she an amazing editor with a passion for books, but she's an awesome person too! A bit more about Ruqayyah: I am an associate editor at Little, Brown Books for Young Readers working on/looking to acquire picture books, middle grade, and young adult novels. I previously interned at MCPG's Swoon Reads imprint and Simon and Schuster's Aladdin and Simon Pulse imprints. I am currently pursuing my M.S. in Publishing from Pace University. My favorite books almost always feature compelling and complex characters who linger in my mind after reading. I enjoy everything from realistic contemporary books to gripping fantasies that sweep you away. Thanks for joining us, @daudrs We know our listeners will LOVE hearing all you have to say.

Hi guys! I hope you enjoyed the first episode of Beth’s Bookshelf last week with Danika Stone. I’m really enjoying podcasting! Today, I have L.E Delano (Ellie) on the podcast with me, the author of ‘Traveller’, a much anticipated young adult novel for 2017 published by Swoon Reads. The story surrounds Jessa, a character who, during the novel, finds out she can travel through alternative universes. Ellie is a fantastic author, and a wonderful person to chat to. Especially about writing and literature! In this episode of Beth’s Bookshelf, we got talking about fan fiction, Once Upon a Time (which was the inspiration for her novel), the representation of autism in literature, and how writers can find inspiration to get creative! We even got talking (in some serious depth) about how great it is to sniff books. If you’d prefer, you can now listen to If you’d prefer, you can now listen to
