Flex Your Writing Muscles! at the Children’s Authors’ Bootcamp JULY 17-18 at the HILTON GARDEN INN, SAN LEANDRO, CA (just outside of Oakland) The Time: The Mission: Writing Children's Fiction I learned more this weekend than from the dozens of books I’ve read on writing! Paula Connell The class was worth every inch of my almost 1700 miles of travel. A week later, I'm still buzzing. Is this what it feels like to win the lottery? Thanks to you both for a life-changing experience. See you on the next cloud! Diana Sparks In the first five minutes my biggest question was answered and they went on to cover fully all I could have hoped they’d do. Thank you - this was a wonderful experience! Kim Jensen Before this workshop I felt like a handyman without a toolkit. I knew something was broken but didn't know how to fix it. Thanks for giving me the tools to repair my manuscripts! Cheryl Kline Thanks so much for all your preparation for the Bootcamp, for your expertise, for your obvious dedication to the field. You are both inspirations!

The Scheme has been extended beyond the UK to help encourage the spread of the PLR principle and to encourage the development of reciprocal arrangements with other PLR countries. The extended scheme opens PLR to British authors resident everywhere in the EC, as well as to other European writers whose books are borrowed from British libraries. In this first year of payments Irish authors are the principal beneficiaries. 12 authors clocked up 1 million or more loans during 2000-2001. Four of them are children's writers* : Catherine Cookson RL Stine (author of the “Goosebumps” series) * Danielle Steel Josephine Cox Dick Francis Jacqueline Wilson* Jack Higgins Agatha Christie Ruth Rendell Patricia Cornwell Lucy Daniels (author of the “Animal Ark” series) * Number One adult fiction author remains Catherine Cookson.

As a passionate reader of Sherlock Holmes, he sets out to find out who did it. But Christopher's search is no ordinary one. He has Asperger's syndrome, a form of autism. He can understand science, but finds emotions nearly impossible to unravel. The dead dog forces him to confront these issues and look more carefully into his family's relationships. Haddon's handling of Christopher's responses to his world is original, funny, kind and profoundly moving.

90. Judy K. Morris, Writing Fiction For Children: Stories Only You Can Tell The advice she offers here to wouldbe children s fiction writers makes sound sense. In fact, Morris would argue that a children s author has an ethical http://www.greenmanreview.com/writingfiction.html

Judy K. Morris, Writing Fiction for Children: Stories Only You Can Tell (University of Illinois Press, 2001) "As a kid I had thought a lot like an adult. As an adult, I thought a lot like a child. In other words, I had really been pretty much the same person all my life." Bruce Brooks Those of us who have been reading folk tales since childhood and have never stopped (which obviously includes most of the the staff at Green Man Review ) can strongly relate to what Bruce Brooks says above. After all, folk tales in our day are usually marketed to children, even though they have traditionally been told to multi-generational audiences. And it seems to be very often true that people who form strong attachments to folk and fairy tales when they hear or read them as children continue to read and love them as adults. Given this transgenerational appeal of certain kinds of stories, there are still other stories which are written specifically for children. What makes these stories "children's stories"? More importantly, what makes a good children's story? Judy K. Morris engages these questions in her new book, Writing Fiction for Children: Stories Only You Can Tell , newly published in September 2001.
