The Children’s Writer’s Guide examines how you can get started as a writer, create
time and space to pursue your craft and deal with lack of motivation and writers
block. Topics covered include where ideas come from and how writers turn them
into stories, choosing names for characters that are appropriate to the story,
the importance of historical research if your novel is set in a different era,
writing science fiction and fantasy, and the use of magic in stories for
children.
The guide examines the role of editing and revision and how to
deal with what is often the inevitable process of rejection, at least until
good fortune comes your way. I also recount some of my experiences with
marketing and promotion, such as book launches and in-store signings, websites,
blogs, and social media, and discusses presentations, workshops and
author-in-residence programs at schools and libraries.

Writer’s Guide.
