About this title

From the Author:

I taught children's writing workshops for over 12 years. During that time I realized that although there were many books written for adults and written for adults who taught children, there were really no books about how to write, written just for children. I decided to see what I could do. WRITE NOW! ended up being as much fun to write as it was to actually work with the kids. Judging from the mail I receive, it's fun for the kids to read and work with as well. For grown-ups, too. I get a lot of feedback from adults who have used it and found it helpful and informative.
