Christina asked D.G. Driver:

What is it about writing YA/middle grade that appeals to you? Personally, I found it harder than writing for adults!

D.G. Driver I really enjoyed my life as a high schooler, and I have vivid memories from 12-18. I find that I'm constantly thinking of story ideas that fit into that age realm because of it. I rarely think of stories for very young children or adults. I also have daughters, and I'm able to tap into their experiences a bit when I write too. Two of them are in their young twenties now, but my youngest is still in high school. I think I'm going to attempt an adult novel next (mc's age at about 25), so we'll see how it goes. Thanks for asking.
