Description

On this week's episode of Ask A Musa, we're talking all about swapping age categories! Listen on as this week's Musas chat about how they choose the age category and genre for their projects, how those decisions can guide a story's voice, and how they prepare for switching age categories or genres. We end with a few red flags to look out for when talking with agents about projects that span multiple age categories, and lastly: dream projects for the future.
