We had a great time with Stevie Rae Causey. She feels quite strongly about positive messages in young adult and middle grade fiction and tells us exactly why. Her dogs and children give her incredible story ideas. Listen to the podcast to find out how. She might have had the best second grade teacher ever. Gretchen, her co-host on her Exceptionally Average Authors podcast, stopped by in the chat to give us some insider info.
