Welcome to day four of Renee Hand’s 6-day NWFCC April Author Showcase tour and join Ms. Hand as she discusses knowing your audience.
When writing for children, one must always keep in mind their audience. Developing ideas for appropriate topics to write about and keeping them at a certain age level, can be challenging. I view writing for children as something that is fun and educational. I put a lot of effort in making my books unique and different. As a writer we must find a niche and fill it. Writing for children is making sure you get your message across. The children’s market is flooded with books. As a writer we have to create storylines that stand out from the crowd and get noticed, not blend in with the rest and be forgettable.
Special Mother's Day Showcase - at a Special Price!
The National Writing for Children Center is looking for children's books about mothers (and mothers and their children) for a special Mother's Day Showcase in May.
The center is offering a special price for this Mother's Day Showcase.
my new mid-grade adventure for boys - and tomboys too!
.
Writing the story of "Taconi and Claude" was a labor of love.
Though I now live in the US, I spent the first half of my life in Australia. The Outback, and the Dreamtime Land in this book, was only a kookaburra flight across the mountains from where I grew up. It is an ancient land, and its aboriginal people are one of a kind. And the far outback tribes enjoy a fascinating way of life
Welcome to day four of Pamela Hamilton’s 6-day NWFCC February Author Showcase tour.
Here, in no particular order, are some tips and advice, things I know I should do, but don’t necessarily follow. But isn’t that always the case?
1.Write every day. I work full time, so my “writing time” is limited to bits and spurts. Most of my daily writing is in my journal, in the morning while I’m having coffee, at lunch. At night, I try to update my blog or work a bit on whatever piece (or pieces) I have going. On weekends, I dedicate blocks of time, two to three hours on Saturday and Sunday, to working on my current projects.I write like I read: I have a couple of projects in the works at any given time. Mostly because I find it almost impossible to follow my next piece of advice.
2.Stifle that little voice in your head that says “that’s terrible!” and write whatever you are working on from beginning to end. I know, much easier said than done. I love Anne Lamott’s advice in Bird by Bird that says it’s fine to have a stinky first draft. I just wish my inner critic did. My muse has to be really impassioned to drown out the my inner critic, so I generally settle for keeping it quiet for short periods, either for a specific time period, like one hour, or a set amount of writing, so many pages or a chapter.
3.Read. Anything. Everything. I drive my husband (and probably the mailman) crazy with the all of the magazines I subscribe to, from cooking to decorating to writing to gossip, I read them cover to cover. Then there are the books. The local library loves the Hamilton family. Not only do we patronize them, but we also donate very gently used books to their shelves and book sales.
4.Find another creative outlet. I love photography and can spend hours wandering around taking photographs. Thank God for digital photography, because I could never afford to develop all of those pictures. Don’t be afraid to experiment to find your “other love.” I tried knitting, watercolor painting, and even belly dancing before realizing

These are great tips...I really like how you recommend finding other creative outlets too. That's a suggestion you don't hear every day, and I think it can be really important!
Excellent article. I think I have the most silent inner critic around. Maybe I've just beaten her into submission. I don't ever get caught up in thinking my work isn't up to snuff, but I am always looking for ways to improve it.
Celebrating your successes is very important. I'm glad you mentioned that.
Hi, I just chose you as one of the recipients of Seven Facts Award. Hope you will accept it. http://tributebooksmama.blogspot.com/2011/02/seven-facts-award.html
Welcome to day four of Nancy Sanders’ 6-day NWFCC February Author Showcase tour.
Q: With your experience writing over 80 books, do you offer tips or strategies for other children’s writers to experience success?
A: My book, Yes! You Can Learn How to Write Children’s Books, Get Them Published, and Build a Successful Writing Career is chock-full of practical strategies and inside tips on how to experience success as a children’s writer. I share actual methods I’ve taken to experience success as well as strategies my writer friends take. To learn more about my book, children’s writers can visit its website at www.YesYouCanLearn.wordpress.com.
Q: What are other people saying about your book, Yes! You Can?
A: Here are just a couple of quotes people have told me about this book:
“I’m on Chapter 11 of your book. I love it! You have changed my whole approach to writing for children. By the end of Chapter 2, I started to try your methods. I landed a book contract that same week using your strategies! My whole critique group is buying your book now. I think you may be pioneering a new era. Thank you so much.”
-Jennifer
“Thanks to you & your book, Yes! You Can, I now have 2 national magazine articles scheduled for printing!”
-Betsy
“You know how you put those little boosters at the beginning and the end of each section…read on to see how to do it…and you can then reach for the stars…and ‘I’ll show you how’? It is amazing how much they really help me to keep going through the book, and to not give up.”
-Suz
Q: What words of advice would you like to share with wannabe children’s writers?
A: Always use three different strategies to meet three different goals. So many writers try to write one manuscript to meet all three different goals: get published, earn income, and experience personal fulfillment as a writer. I’ve found that this is a sure-fire recipe for frustration, fistfuls of rejection letters, and hardly any income. Instead, I recommend using a different strategy to meet each of those three goals.
From my experience, I encourage writers to write steadily for the no-pay/low-pay market to build up published credits. I recommend learning how to query widely and query well in order to start landing contracts to earn income while you write. And I always encourage writers to devote a small portion of each week to writing that manuscript they’re passionate about.
In other words, work on three different projects for three different goals. I’ve discovered this helps build up published credits, helps land contracts, and brings a treme

Hi Kim,I love writing for small presses, even after getting all these years and all these books published, so yes! I encourage writers to work with small traditional publishers. Here's just one reason: I've had book published by big publishers and they're out of print in several years 'cause the big publishers make more room for new titles. However, the small presses keep my books in print for years. I love this! I've not had much experience with e-publishing, but lots of traditional publishers are looking into this. One of my publishers sells an e-book of mine now so we'll see how the royalties go on that one. -Nancy
Welcome to day four of Laurie Monopoli’s 6-day NWFCC February Author Showcase tour.
Excerpt from my article: Setting the Stage to Self-Promoting Your Children’s Picture Book
I equate publishing a book to giving birth to a child (obviously a female perception) -- a painstaking process that culminates into a unique, celebrated reflection of oneself.Publicly promoting something that is dear to heart can range from moments of sheer bliss to bouts of disappointing misery.After all, it’s comparable to placing a precious newborn in front of the world to be judged, dissected and scrutinized.You can (and you will) sing the praises of your own book until the cows come home, and still not sell many books.Kudos from reputable reviews sources and notable awards serves a valuable role in the promotion and overall success of your book.So it’s worth the risk to get it out there for some open scrutiny.Read the complete article here:

I think many people forget this part of it: "it’s comparable to placing a precious newborn in front of the world to be judged, dissected and scrutinized."
When people like what you've done it's a fantastic feeling, but you must be prepared for the inevitable lion waiting in the tall grass.
Welcome to day four of Michelle Hall’s 6-day NWFCC February Author Showcase tour.
One of the first tips that I would give to anyone writing a book for kids is to remember exactly that very important fact ... you are writing the book for KIDS. When you are deciding on characters, language, pictures, settings, those kinds of things, close your eyes, sit quietly and take yourself back to when you were a child.
Remember what books and TV shows, toys and games fascinated you and made you long for more.Bring that little girl or boy inside of you to the surface. Remember those story books that you never got tired of reading, and how you almost felt like you could see the characters as you read. You felt as though you were right there with them and for that special moment you were taken away and your imagination made you feel everything in the story was actually happening.
When I am writing a book I often go to my daughter’s bookshelf and read books that I really find interesting there, or that she has told me is ‘really, really good mommy.’ I go to the park and watch the children play and listen to them talk to each other. I want to not only hear the way they talk to each other, but I want to hear what’s exciting to them and makes them happy.
One of the things I’ve done when planning to write a children’s book is I volunteer to do reading time at my daughter’s school. In doing so I get to see which stories gets the kids’ full attention and involvement, what kinds of characters seem most popular, what adventures and settings are most interesting.
When I write my children’s books I like to give my illustrator a clear guideline of each scene that I want to have with each text. I browse through many children’s books and magazines, watch children’s TV channels and research many pictures on the internet until I come up with what I feel is the perfect scene with characters, actions and setting that matches the text it will accompany.
Last but not least, I have as many close friends and family members tell me what they think about the book as I go along. I listen to ideas. I am open to suggestions and I am willing to do whatever it takes to make that book be a great read for some little girl or boy. And ... of course I ask a child to give me her opinion ... my daughter is my best adviser.

Welcome to day four of L.S. Cauldwell’s 6-day NWFCC February Author Showcase tour.
When I wrote Anna Mae, I studied the grammatical language of kids in their tweens and teenage years. That meant, kids speak one way at school, one way with each other, and another way when they're with their parents. Try to remain true to the speech pattern of that particular age of that child. Unless the kid is a genius, don't have them speak like an adult. Another tip, make your character consistent all the way through the novel. Don't change your character's personality in mid stream. Also, make sure that the clues make sense to the kids, otherwise, your characters and mystery won't be believable to them.

Thank for you joining me here today for Day 4 of my 6-day virtual tour for my new middle grade historical novel, The Lucky Baseball: My Story in a Japanese-American Internment Camp. Today I'd like to offer some tips for writing historical fiction.
Besides writing for children, I also teach writing workshops for the Children's Writers' Coaching Club. Every month our club members get to listen and take part in 4 teleclasses about writing for children or the business of writing for children. I thought it might be more fun to let you listen in to one of our teleclasses today.
Just click this link to listen to a 55-minute teleclass called:
Bringing the Past to Life: Writing Historical Fiction for Middle Grade Readers In this teleclass, fellow children's author Lila Guzman and I offer tips for writing historical fiction. I hope you'll read The Lucky Baseball and see how I used these tips to make the story of Harry Yakamoto and his family who lived in a Japanese-American Internment Camp come to life.
Thanks for visiting my blog, I will surely visit yours again and again. I love writing and reading has always been my favorite way to relax and be entertained.
I love, love, love your blog! You have the job I'm working towards! You follow my blog at http://datssocute.blogspot.com I look forward to chatting with you sometime!
Thanks for following Mom is the Only Girl. I never really thought about what goes into writing a children's book before. I'm interested to read more posts!
Hello, and thank you for following me on Day 4 of my 6-day virtual tour for my new book G. W. Frog and the Circus Lion.
As a novice in this area of children’s books, it would seem arrogant of me to offer advice to anyone concerning Children’s books. However, in examining my own feeble brain, I might offer that no matter how silly an idea may surface about a story or an idea, try and put it in words that a child might relate to. Again, for me that’s easy because I have the mentality of a child (ask my wife!).
Whatever media one choses for illustrating the story is permissible, but modern technology, such as Photoshop, has made the process of coloring your illustrations so much easier. I realize that many do not have access to such a program, and the manual process of illustrating and coloring are very rewarding as well. Different strokes for different folks!
Picture books should be as interesting to look at as they are to read (or listen to, as is the case for young children who don't read books but have someone read the books to them). In G.W, Frog and the Circus Lion, there are two pages of colorful illustrations before the story begins, that show some of the characters that will be presented in the story. Children are asked to count these characters. Then, on the last pages of the book, we give a list of all these characters' names so children can see if they counted correctly and also see if they remember which name goes with which character. This is just one more way to make the book fun and engaging for kids - and for adults who will probably be asked to read the story over and over again.
This looks like a darling book! And educational too! Thanks again for following Ad Bits! Following you too of course! :) ~Jules @ www.adbits.blogspot.com
I'm excited to be hosting children's authors Heath Rhoades and Dawn Menge on this the fourth day of their virtual book tour with The National Writing for Children Center!
Heath and Dawn are the authors of Queen Vernita Meets Sir HeathyBean the Astronomer. Find out more about the book and the authors at the National Writing for Children Center. Writing Tips from Heath Rhoades
I think one of the big lessons I have learned through this process is that you really need to understand your audience. It seems that maybe I overshot the age group a bit in the content of the book. In order to fit with in the format created by Dawn Menge in her series, I attempted to provide a lot of different topics in a very short format. In the future for this age group I would certainly rethink that. However, the desire to write to a higher age group has come out of this project and research is being done now for my next book, which will target teen to young adults.
Writing Tips from Dawn Menge
The structure of the award winning Queen Vernitas Series picture book seris is based on the researched methods of rote learning. Rote learning has an important place in the educational community. The use of rote learning is a productive method of teaching and learning for facts that can be learned in sequence and do not require higher processing methods such as application and synthesizing. Rote learning memorization is applicable for teaching in learning when used with short sets of concepts such as days of the weeks and months of the year. The predicatable structured format of the series contributes to the ease of writing each book. The reader has a format that is dependable and thereby decreases the anxieties for the new learner as they develop their skills.

Thanks for the tips, ladies!

Do you have something important to say to children’s authors, illustrators, publishers, parents, and even children who love books?
Then be a guest blogger for the day for the National Writing for Children Center and get your information out there to more and more people.
Send your article, .jpg photo attachments, and a short author bio (with links to your site or sites) to suzannelieurance.com and become one of our guest bloggers in the next few days, weeks, and months.
Also, if you’d like to exchange links with the NWFCC, send us the link to your site, along with the name of the site, and we’ll put your link up in exchange for our link of http://www.writingforchildrencenter.com for The National Writing for Children Center.
Most of us take the public library for granted. It’s just THERE whenever we need it. But, for readers in a remote region of Africa, the library comes to them via camel.
The Camel Library began operating in October 1996. The bush where the camels go is otherwise impassable. These days, 12 camels (and librarians) make their way through the bush to four settlements every day, four days a week.
Now that’s dedication!
The Camel Library needs more books, and the National Writing for Children Center is going to see that they get them.
Every month we will send books that we have received for review (after the reviews are written, of course). Suzanne Lieurance will also send the books she receives from authors who are her guests on her weekday afternoon talk show, Book Bites for Kids.
If you’re a children’s author or illustration and would like to have your book reviewed by the National Writing for Children Center - and know that the book will eventually find its way halfway around the world for children who might never have a chance to read it otherwise - send your book(s) via regular mail (since UPS will NOT deliver to a p.o. box) to:
The National Writing for Children Center
