Getting a Publishing Contract to Write Young Adult Fiction with Zara Miller

Have you ever considered writing fiction for young adults?

In this episode, I chat to Zara Miller, whose first book, I Am Cecilia, is about to be published. It’s a romance aimed at young adults. 

We talk about her process for writing young adult fiction and romance, and she explains how she also writes fanfiction set in the Riverdale universe, which she says helps her decompress. 

Zara also talks about what drew her to write young adult fiction and how she landed a book publishing contract.

In this episode we discuss:

• Where the idea came from for a young adult book
• The benefits of having a strong LinkedIn profile
• What is an 'episodic' writer
• Tips for getting the writing process started
• Letting off steam through writing fanfiction
