6: So Poseidon Walks in to a Critique Group... with guest author David Elliott

I rant a bit about "girl books" and "boy books", then I am joined by David Elliott, the brilliant author of BULL, the ORQ series, and much more. His books are generally hilarious, and his latest is in verse, so we talk about having an "ear" for comedy and poetry. We talk about novels in verse, and David sheds light on his process, talks about Jungian analysis, and gabs about Greek myths and Joan of Arc. David also gives his advice for both how to take criticism of your writing... and how to GIVE it. And he reaches into the archives to give some book recommendations, including TUCK EVERLASTING. :-)
