There’s a misconception that writing novels for children is simple, but the truth is far from it.
Children and teens are some of the most discerning readers of all, and they’re quick to put down a book that doesn’t work for them. Not only do stories have to have tight plots, but writers must also make sure their work has the right voice and content to keep their targeted age group interested. Get it all right, and you’ll not only have a successful story, but also make a reader for life.
In this class, you’ll learn:
- what makes a novel middle grade or young adult
- structuring a middle-grade or young-adult novel
- how voice works to enhance these stories
- tips on coming up with story ideas
- and tools to write novels that will make your MG or YA books standout and last.
