What was the path Laura Ingalls Wilder took to see her books published? How did she go from an autobiography no publisher wanted to a wildly successful author of children’s fiction? In this episode, Nancy Koupal, editor of the new book, Pioneer Girl: The Path Into Fiction explains how Laura and her daughter Rose Wilder Lane forged that path. Their example can teach us all a great deal about how an idea gets fashioned into a successful book. More about the book and the Pioneer Girl Project’s other books can be found here: Pioneer Girl: The Path into Fiction — South Dakota Historical Society Press (sdhspress.com)
