In this episode of Story of the Book, Christine Day walks us through how she wrote her second middle grade novel, The Sea in Winter, which was published by Heartdrum in January 2021. We talk about second book syndrome, writing middle grade stories that don't get rid of the parents, and why there's never a perfect time to write a book. We loved this conversation and we hope you do, too!
