In this episode of Chasing the Insights, I talk to the prolific and inspirational teen author Shanti Hersheson. Shanti talks to us about writing and publishing books as a teen author. Shanti Hershenson's first two novellas were published when she was in the sixth grade, although her writing journey started long before then. Ever since she could hold a pencil, marker, or crayon, she was creating stories. They started from pictures, mere scribbles, and eventually, turned into captivating tales.
