Author B.B. Russell stopped by the Bunker to talk about her young adult novel Kindreds.
She and Brad have more than just writing in common. B.B. has a PhD in Education, so she and Brad commiserated on the complexities of YA novels (and, let’s face it, YAs!) and the difficulty switching between academic and trade writing.
