A New Voice selection by NYT Bestselling author Adam Silvera

Created by New York Times bestselling authors Emily X. R. Pan and Nova Ren Suma, Foreshadow is so much more than a short story collection. A trove of unforgettable fiction makes up the beating heart of this book, and the accompanying essays offer an ode to young adult literature, as well as practical advice to writers.

What makes these memorable stories tick? What sparked them? How do authors build a world or refine a voice or weave in that deliciously creepy atmosphere to bring their writing to the next level? Addressing these questions and many more are essays and discussions on craft and process by Nova Ren Suma and Emily X. R. Pan.

This unique compilation reveals and celebrates the magic of reading and writing for young adults.

 

Available in paperback and ebook from Algonquin Young Readers

I loved Joanna Truman’s ‘Glow’ so much! Knockout writing and romantically suspenseful. Truly reminds me of those caged butterfly feelings when you’re bursting to tell someone they’re your favorite person and the soaring glee when you finally get it off your chest.
