Tapping into your Inner Teen aka Writing for Young Adults Description: We’re in a new golden age for young adult fiction. If youสนve wanted to tap into your inner teen and write a YA novel, this program is for you. Young adult author and teen librarian, Terri Clark, will define what makes a young adult novel, explain how teen fiction has changed over the years, help you discover your teen voice, introduce you to the market and highlight bestsellers and current trends. Description: Paranormal fiction is hotter than ever and Terri Clark is going to tell you why. She’ll also define the difference between paranormal romance and urban fantasy and explain why readers are willing to suspend their disbelief, but only if you ground the roots of your story in reality. If you want to know how to make the impossible seem plausible this is the workshop for you. Hope to see you there!
