Writing YA fiction with Angela Misri

Alison Garwood-Jones January 18, 2017

This week on Willful, I sat down with Angela Misri (‪@karmicangel‪), a Toronto-based journalist and former CBC’er, now a co-host of the podcast, Ada’s Sisters (with Eden Spodek), and the author of the A Portia Adams Adventure Series. In Ep. 3, Angela shares her thoughts on:‬‬

• Writing Young Adult fiction.

• Searching for female protagonists in books.

• Why Nancy Drew isn’t her cup of tea.

• Running in heels.

Willful is the web series that tracks how artists and creative entrepreneurs work, thrive and survive. We interview one artist a week, then post five three-minute snack films from that interview on YouTube every day.

Follow on our YouTube Channel (WillfulProject) and Facebook Page, or on our website WillfulProject.com for our entire archive of inspiring interviews.

Thank you to Greg Garson and the staff of  The Merchant Taps & Tavern for the location and the hospitality.

Shot and edited by the talented Yann Yap.
