The Write Time with Author Candace Fleming and Educator Megan Rodney NWP Radio

Candace Fleming (https://candacefleming.com) awarded herself the Newbery Medal in fifth grade after scraping the gold sticker off the class copy of The Witch of Blackbird Pond and pasting it onto her first novel—a ten-page, ten-chapter mystery called Who Done It? She’s been collecting awards (her own, not Elizabeth George Speare’s) ever since.
Today, Candace is the versatile and acclaimed author of more than forty books for children and young adults, including the Los Angeles Times Book Prize honored The Family Romanov: Murder, Rebellion, and the Fall of the Russian Empire; Boston Globe/Horn Book Award-winning biography, The Lincolns; the bestselling picture book, Muncha! Muncha! Muncha!; the Sibert-Award-winning Giant Squid; and the beloved Boxes for Katje. She contributed the chapter on Katharine of Aragon to Fatal Throne.
Candace is interviewed by Ohio Writing Project (OWP) teacher-leader Megan Rodney (https://twitter.com/megan_rodney). Megan is a former second- and third-grade teacher, and is currently the Elementary PD Lead with OWP.
