In Part 2 of my conversation with James Ponti, we discuss the inspiration behind his new series, The Sherlock Society, and his journey from screenwriting to becoming a successful author of middle-grade fiction. He shares insights into his writing process, the importance of creating relatable characters, and the joy of storytelling. Ponti also offers valuable advice for aspiring writers, emphasizing the significance of writing daily and focusing on completion rather than perfection.
