Hi, everyone! Today I'm happy to present an interview with Kaylie Smith, the author of A Ruinous Fate, which is out now!
Would you please describe your book, A Ruinous Fate, in seven words?
— A magical adventure about changing your fate
Have you always wanted to write YA books?
— Yes! I fell in love with YA when I was a teenager myself, and have always found the worlds of these novels so colorful and lush and I wanted to be a part of growing that. The path to publishing can be a little strange and unexpected but I’ve dreamed for years that I would get here and I’m so excited to connect with excited young readers! 
Random Question! What’s your favorite color?
— Lavender!
What’s one piece of advice you would give aspiring authors?
— To remember that everyone has failures and rejections. Sometimes this industry can feel very isolating and make you doubt your capabilities but sometimes just writing what you love and making yourself proud is more than enough.
What are some books you’re looking forward to reading in 2023? And if you’ve already read some ‘23 books, would you like to mention them?
— SO MANY amazing books are coming in 2023! Where Darkness Blooms by Andrea Hannah, Seven Faceless Saints by M. K. Lobb, Song of Silver Flame Like Night by Amélie Wen Zhao, All The Fighting Parts by Hannah Sawyer, When It All Syncs Up by Maya Ameyaw, and Sing Me To Sleep by Gabi Burton are all at the top of my list!
