Are you stuck trying to figure out whether your work in progress is middle grade or young adult fiction? Are you stressed out that you don't know where your book fits on the shelf?

This episode with industry-savvy editor Sangeeta Mehta, tackles the rules to follow about where a book fits, from character ages and topics discussed, to book length and protagonist's voice. We discuss  regional sensibilities and how they impact bookstore decisions; whether the industry should embrace an upper middle grade category and what to do with a book that doesn't fit neatly into either YA or middle grade.
