| For Children’s Writers
Children’s Book Insider (write4kids.com) publishes three of my books for children’s writers. These workshops-in-books focus on Plot, Character, and Brainstorming techniques.
Plot Workshop
This book focuses on using 25 character goals with lists of obstacles that can be created for each goal. Exercises, action steps, and worksheets focus on gathering and tracking plot details through the story. The revised and expanded 3rd edition is due out early 2010.
Character Workshop
This book offers a vast array of questions to ask about your characters, nicely categorized and sorted into sections: general, physical, psychological, and sociological issues. The worksheets and exercises focus on developing and tracking character traits through the story. The revised and expanded 3rd edition is due out early 2010
Brainstorming Workshop
This book offers a myriad of creativity techniques for both fiction and nonfiction children’s writers to generate and use ideas for the writing. The exercises and action steps are used to gather, work through, and track ideas for any writing project. The revised and expanded 3rd edition is due out early 2010.
