Today, I have the pleasure of interviewing Ryan Dalton.
Ryan is an author, singer, voiceover artist, amateur chef and lover of all things geek. He’s also the author of the young adult and middle-grade books including the time travel mystery series, the Time Shift trilogy. Today we’ll be discussing his latest novel, This Last Adventure, a middle-grade story about the bond between a teenage boy and his grandfather, how that boy copes with his grandfather’s memory loss, and what it means to live a life worth remembering.
In this episode Ryan Dalton and I discuss:
- Why he wrote This Last Adventure as a middle grade story, as opposed to YA.
- How he created a sense of hope when his amorphous antagonist was undefeatable.
- Writing group scenes and what to include and what to leave out to make each character distinct.
Plus, his #1 tip for writers. For more info and show notes: diymfa.com/396
