In today’s episode, Alex sits down with Jennifer De Leon, award-winning author of the YA novels Borderless, featured on the TODAY show, and Don’t Ask Me Where I’m From. She is also the author of White Space: Essays on Culture, Race, & Writing. She is an active speaker, presenter, and educator who loves to connect with readers of all ages. Jenn lives outside the Boston area with her husband and two sons.
Listen as they discuss everything from the white spaces BIPOC authors find in the writing industry, what her time in Guatamala taught her, who Maya, her protag in Borderless, is based on, how teaching writing at a University has helped her writing, and her initiative The Story Bridge Project.
