Deb in the City: Books In Conversation

Deborah Nam-Krane: At the age of eight, I decided to be a playwright. At the age of eleven, I pulled my first all-nighter to write a play based on King Arthur for my sixth-grade class. Unfortunately, my teacher couldn't read my handwriting. This is probably why I decided that writing a novel would be much easier. Now that all four of my children are done with homeschooling and in college or graduated, I can be found reading like it’s my job (and it kind of is). My New Adult series The New Pioneers includes seven full-length novels and three short stories. As of 2018, I'm working on a Science Fantasy series that will feature some of my favorite elements: strong heroines, messy family dynamics, and multiple power struggles.
