Are you writing (or attempting to write) a YA novel for boys? Check out this article from Publishers Weekly by a 13-year-old New Jersey boy who dissects all that’s wrong with modern YA and tells you what he wants to read.

Don’t like being told what to do by a 13-year-old? Remember, he’s published in PW. Are you?
