Zibby interviews bestselling author Wade Rouse (whose pen name Viola Shipman honors his grandmother) about his latest novels, The Edge of Summer and A Wish For Winter. Wade describes each book and the people who inspired them–his incredible grandmother, who put books in his hands and supported him as he grew up gay in the Missouri Ozarks, and his fiercely protective brother, whom he lost at a young age. He also talks about his journey to becoming an author, shares his sincerest advice for aspiring writers, and gives us an intriguing glimpse into his other books, which masterfully explore love, humor, and heartache.
