Karyn Parsons Drops by to Talk About How High The Moon

July 24, 2021 by Colby Sharp   Leave a Comment

COLBY: Back in 2019, at the NCTE Annual Conference in Baltimore, I sat down with Karyn Parsons to talk about her middle grade novel ‘How High the Moon’. I was very proud of myself for not asking Karyn anything about her time working on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. She did manage to bring it up a few times in our conversation. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Karyn!
