Annike asked Patty Blount:

I really loved your book Some Boys it was amazingly written! I wanted to ask, what are some of the biggest tips you would give to aspiring young adult authors?

Patty Blount To any aspiring author, I always give the same advice I was given when just starting this journey -- READ! Read both in and beyond your genre so you know how stories work and how they don't. Read to inspire yourself to think in new directions. And then write the stories that scare you the most.

Thank you so much for reading my work! I'm glad you enjoyed Some Boys.
