Canadian Authors – Niagara: Writing for Young Readers

In this three-hour workshop Angela Misri will take writers through the steps of creating and pitching stories for middle grades and young adult readers. This includes exercises in world-building, younger points of view, character diversity, educational vs entertainment writing, and story arcs. Participants are welcome to arrive with their own existing ideas and writing. We will be sharing our work at different points in the workshop.
