In this episode of the Las Musas Podcast's Ask a Musa host Lulu Delacre joins
Alyssa Reynoso-Morris, Gabi Aldeman, and Sallie Anne Rodriguez to answer questions about pitches, querying, being prepared, and never quitting.
They started by talking about books they are reading now, such as The Last Beekeeper by Pablo Cartaya, Pilar Ramirez and the Escape from Zafa by Julian Randall, Free Water by Amina Luqman-Dawson (Author), the adult historical book titled Miss del Rio by Bárbara Mujica
Then they attacked the questions such as:
