"Hot Rodent Men, First Loves, YA Romance w/author Sujin Witherspoon
About this episode
In this episode, I’m joined by YA romance author, Sujin Witherspoon to talk about writing emotionally honest love stories, creating chemistry that actually works, and why teenage feelings are never “too much.”
We also discuss flawed characters, quiet vulnerability, hot rodent men, and the scenes authors fight editors over.
Equal parts thoughtful and unhinged, this conversation is for readers who annotate books, fall for fictional people a little too hard, and still think about their favorite YA romance years later. 🎙️📚🐀
