Amina Mirza is getting ready to publish her first novel, The Mermaid and the Mini-Horse. She describes it as “a fishy fairy tale” – for adults.

Listen to episode 13 of the Write Like a Badass podcast, and hear about how Amina used “free writing” and wrote most of her novel on her phone!

You will also get to hear Amina read an excerpt from her book – and do character voices.
