Writing for Children by Linda Strachan
Many people want to write for children but are often unaware of the wide variety of markets to choose from or how to find the right publisher for their idea. Aimed at both established and aspiring writers, this book aims to offer advice on the whole publishing process from initial idea through to final publication and beyond. All the key areas of children's publishing are covered: picture books, fiction, poetry, plays, non fiction, educational books, books for reluctant readers. There will also be useful advice for the newly published on publicity, setting up a website, tax and accounting, and handling school/library author visits.
Linda Strachan has written for many publishers including working directly with Australian and American educational publishers. She is the author of over 50 books including a successful series of trade picture books, books for reluctant readers, retelling of myths and legends, fiction and non fiction for young children and recently for interactive CD Rom (Pelican Interactive).
