Description
We are back at it with another episode of The Next Best-Seller Podcast. This episode's guest is unique from our previous guest in that she is a teen author, just like you. This sophomore in high school won the 2021 First Chapter Contest at Teen Author Boot Camp and is already on her way to a great writing career. Maren Detlefs joins me in our second episode to talk about how you can improve your first chapters to better hook your readers and to discuss her life as a teen writer. She is currently in the process of writing a story called School Of Queens that she describes as a mix of The Queen's Gambit, Dead Poets Society, and A Christmas Carol. Join me in learning more about writing and about teen writer, Maren Detlefs.  This podcast is sponsored by Teen Author Boot Camp (TABC), an organization that brings best-selling authors to teen writers.
