From <em>1984<\/em> to <em>Fahrenheit\u00a0451<\/em>, authors have created futures that we fear may come to pass (if they haven&#8217;t already). Margaret Peterson Haddix is known for her juvenile and young adult series. In the Children of Exile series, she envisions a dystopian future that\u00a0is still suitable for children. Join us for a discussion of <em>Children of Jubilee<\/em>, the final book in the series; her inspirations and writing process in making believable child characters; and why even children are interested in dystopian fiction. Just make sure that Big Brother isn&#8217;t listening as well.<\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_4550\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-2082-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.crafttheshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Craft-2018-12-2-HaddixFull.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.crafttheshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Craft-2018-12-2-HaddixFull.mp3\">http:\/\/www.crafttheshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Craft-2018-12-2-HaddixFull.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crafttheshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Craft-2018-12-2-HaddixFull.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('https:\/\/www.crafttheshow.com\/?powerpress_pinw=2082-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crafttheshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Craft-2018-12-2-HaddixFull.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"Craft-2018-12-2-HaddixFull.mp3\">Download<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I find dystopian novels one of the most interesting forms of science fiction.
