Writing Children’s Fiction

From Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to Harry Potter, children’s fiction includes some of the best-loved novels of our time. Each week we will examine a different aspect of children's authorship, including crafting plots, creating memorable characters, writing age-appropriate prose and dialogue, and approaching publishers. Through simple exercises, the course will help develop writing skills and kick-start your journey towards becoming a children's author, all under the guidance of a published author.
