NADINE BRANDES once spent four days as a sea cook in the name of book research. She is the award-winning author of FAWKES, ROMANOV, and the Out of Time Series. Her inner fangirl perks up at the mention of soul-talk, Quidditch, bookstagram, and Oreos. When she's not busy writing novels about bold living, she's adventuring through Middle Earth or taste-testing a new chai. Nadine, her Auror husband, and their Halfling children are building a Tiny House on wheels. Current mission: paint the world in shalom.

This is always my first piece of advice for anyone serious about writing. You will learn so much and the professionals can always teach you something. There isn't an author I know who didn't have his/her mind blown from their first conference. Sometimes it takes a week or two (or five or ten) of recovery after the first conference, but if you push through, your writing will be that much better!(less)

Quotes by Nadine Brandes  (?)

“Ribbons! Long ones, short ones, ones for every mood." He does a little dance to the singsong rhythm. "Thin ones, thick ones, and ones to tie your shoes!”
Nadine Brandes, A Time to Die

“Why won't you die?"
"because I have a story I was meant to live. And not even you can unwrite it.”
Nadine Brandes, Romanov

“You shouldn’t be placing hope in our lives, Parvin. That’s my point. I don’t know the answers of the future, but your confidence and hope need to be in God.”
Nadine Brandes, A Time to Die

Polls

I had this crazy idea, and I hope this is an okay place to share. Have you heard of those book subscription boxes, like Owl Crate? Well I had this idea to start making my own book boxes. They would be clean books for Christian teens, by authors like Stephanie Morrill, Nadine Brandes, and Lisa Tawn Bergren. A friend and I teamed up to do it and we're calling it WishLit. Do you think it would be a good idea? Would you be interested in it? Do you have any tips?

That's a great idea!
