Read this one when it originally came out. Well worth reading again.

On getting the voice in your novel to match the character in your head. I am switching a mg from first to third person and oddly enough, for me, the voice is coming through a whole lot better. In other words, voice isn’t just about telling a story in first person. AnyWHO, enough from me. Here is the link and there is a chance to win a first chapter crit from Natalie.

What a great idea this. As time allows I am going to go through these have a look. I know my blogging platform, writing will be built around Oh MG YA Canada (which I will expand, of course, to become all things Canadian children’s and teen’s literature as I really get going) and being a librarian running a book club for children and teens. Clearly still working on that! Went off on a little think aloud. The trick, for me, is separating my writing self from the librarian self-blogging wise, I mean. I think it’s important for those coming to your blog to know exactly what they will get. Oops, did the think aloud again....! Here is the link!
