I sit down with Kendra Levin, the Associate Editorial Director at Viking Children's Books/PRH. She is also a life-coach for writers, and we talk NaNoWriMo, among other things. She uses the Hero's Journey as not just a craft tool, but a process tool, and gives us a big dose of inspiration for the writer's life. (NaNoInspo that should be useful all the year round!) Along the way, I tell my secret NaNoWriMo confession. Kendra also helps me answer some listener publishing questions, and we talk about Fancy French People and Superheroines, including the Librarian of Congress.
