"a 600-word picture book manuscript was written in the same way as a 40k word MG novel. One word at a time. One paragraph. One chapter." Thanks @christebbetts.bsky.social @highlightsfound.bsky.social #kidlit

Join us tomorrow (Jan 20) for writing, learning, community, and sharing work!
Iβm a hardass about this in theory (I know itβs another matter in practice) but I think we only owe a conscious/considered choosing to tell the truth as we know (and have lived) it. That consideration might lead to withholding, but in theory, I donβt think I OWE anyone the withholding of my story.
In all the teaching I've done, nothing has been more effective for more writers than the kind of gentle accountability that comes from a regular schedule of shared, quiet writing time. Join me and my co-host @saraharonson.bsky.social to make a commitment to your writing in β25!
