NEW! Three Chapter Critique from Author Kirstin Cronn-Mills (Contemp Realistic)
The Prize: One critique of the first three chapters of your fiction young adult novel (30 pages max.), which includes line edits for the first chapter and directional suggestions for the rest. WOAH!
The Darer: According to geographers, the American West begins at the 100th longitudinal meridian. Thanks to the fact that this meridian is the main street of her hometown in Nebraska, Kirstin Cronn-Mills grew up six blocks east of the West. She is a self-proclaimed word nerd who started writing poems in sixth grade. Now she focuses on young adult novels.
Kirstin lives in southern Minnesota where she writes a lot, reads as much as she can, teaches at a two-year college, plays on an adult dodgeball team, and goofs around with her son, Shae, and her husband, Dan. The Sky Always Hears Me is her first novel.
About The Sky Always Hears Me (Llewellyn)
“I borrow the car again from Grandma and drive out to my hill. I scream I AM A BIG FAT ZERO, plus I AM SWEARING OFF KISSING FOREVER, and I HATE BEING A SECRET SEX FIEND, about sixteen times each. Then I sit very still and watch a hawk swirl over the fields. I have to get a new life before I go crazy.”
Sixteen-year-old Morgan lives in a hick town. Her mom was killed in a car accident when she was two, her dad drinks, and her stepmom is a non-entity. Her boyfriend Derek is boring and she can’t stop staring at her coworker Rob’s cute butt. Then there’s the kiss she shared with her neighbor Tessa . . . But when Morgan discovers a devastating secret about the one person she completely trusted, her entire world crashes and she must redefine her life and herself.
