Join me as I chat with YA Fantasy author Ria Parisi about her debut novel Wolves and Stags! We dive into her writing journey—from fanfiction and roleplaying to publishing her first book. Ria shares insights on her unique magic system, plus-size representation in fantasy, her experiences with querying, and how her background in cosplay influences her stories.
