A Horse Named Sky and friends
A Horse Named Sky is out in paperback this week. I’m thrilled to see a little sneak preview of A Wolf Called Fire in the back of this edition. Big thanks to Kirbi Fagan for her gorgeous art. I’ve been doing radio interviews all day chatting about this book, so here on the blog I’d like to take a moment to highlight some other new horse books that I think young readers will love.
First up is Sierra

“If we had known it would eventually involve the KGB, the French National Police, and the Supreme Allied Commander in Europe, we would have left that body in the river and called the Polizei like any normal German citizen; but we were Americans and addicted to solving other people’s problems, so naturally, we got involved.”

This is a very late answer. I only just now found your message.
Yes, middles are the hardest part in my opinion. In revising HEART with my editor we added two new chapters to the middle and changed the order of some others to make the arc of the story work a little better. I usually write a first draft with only a loose outline but I tighten it up considerably in later revision.
Feedback is always good. I rely on my critique partners and editor for lots of questions to help me in revisions.
I can write a story, but then run into problems in the middle that are difficult to write my way out of. Did you outline or work on Heart of a Shepherd before you began writing it? If so, how did you figure out what would happen in the story?
I'm fortunate enough to live in the same town as Ursula LeGuin so I've heard her speak several times and she is amazing! What an inspiration!
