Three authors of middle grade and young adult titles transformed a panel discussion into a master class on how reality finds its way into fiction, during a wide-ranging conversation hosted by Children's Books Boston on March 12 at Simmons University. Led by Horn Book executive editor Elissa Gershowitz, authors Liza Ketchum, Malinda Lo, and Tara Sullivan shared the extent to which they combine meticulous historical research, careful editing, and personal acumen to create realistic fiction storylines for young readers.
