The Porchlight: Episode Six with Sara Pennypacker

Episode 6 features Sara Pennypacker, award-winning author of Pax, the New York Times best-selling Clementine series, the Waylon! series, Summer of the Gypsy Moths, Pierre in Love, Sparrow Girl, The Amazing World of Stuart, and many more.   During Sara's Porchlight visit, she and host Bethany Hegedus explore her journey creating Pax, including what it means to write from an animal's point of view and how much "wildness" it takes to live an authentic life. We discuss the scary but beautiful craft of writing and allowing the story to be the boss—letting go so that we can tell the story that wants to be told. Sara also talks about her friendship with her hands-on editor, Donna Bray. Sara will be coming to the Writing Barn February 23 – 26, 2017 for our Advanced Writer Weekend Workshop: Mastering the Middle Grade with NYT bestseller Sara Pennypacker and Publisher Donna Bray.    Show Notes:  New York Times Review of Pax  Sara Pennypacker's Pax Interview with NPR's 'All Things Considered' Intensive with Sara Pennypacker is now sold out!
