![]() ![]() ![]() SP: Now, about this lovely Middle Grade book, What Stars are Made Of. Hundreds of rejections and several books later, I signed with my incredible agent in early 2018, and then after even more revisions, we sold the book later that fall. I moved around a bit, went back to BYU for a masters degree in creative writing, all the while writing new books and querying agents. I started querying agents with that first novel in 2012, and it was (very deservedly) never picked up. I majored in English in college, and started writing my first novel around that time. Thank you so much for having me here, it’s such an exciting honor! STARS is my fourth book, so it’s been quite the long journey! I grew up in Utah, and have known I wanted to be a writer basically my whole life. ![]() SP: Hi Sarah! I’m so excited to have you on the Spinning Pen to talk about your debut, What Stars are Made Of!
