Carpinello's
Writing Pages is back this Hop with more tips from the Children's,
Middle Grade, and Young Adult writers I've interviewed. These are from March, 2015.
Write what you want to read because if you want to read it, chances are
someone else will too. Markets change. Fads change, but a good story is
timeless—H. L. Burke, author of
Thaddeus Whiskers and the Dragon
Keep writing, no matter how discouraged you might get, or how busy life becomes. Nobody can tell your stories but you—Nancy M. Bell, author of The Cornwall Adventures: A Step Beyond.
Just get the first book written. Then write more books. Make sure you
have a proficient editor and proofreader. Write what you would read.
Make it fun. Don’t overthink it!—Cynthia P. Willow, author of Letsi and the Labyrinth.
Join a critique group. Write your story. Research. Learn. Edit. Submit your story. Last, but not least, never ever give up—Susan A. Royal, author of Not Long Ago.
My advice is to write every day. Practice may not make perfect, but it
will improve your writing skills. When the draft is complete, edit,
edit, and edit. When you think you are finished, read it again. Also,
leave the book alone for a few days, or weeks. It helps to take a break
and return to it later—Sara Stinson, author of Finger Bones and Wendy.
