KNOWHOW Things that go bump in the night - Chapter Books (Part 5)
In this KnowHow series, Lynn Huggins-Cooper explores how to successfully write spooky stories for children - from picture books to YA - and will be featuring wisdom from a variety of authors and illustrators along the way!
Next month, we'll look at YA horror - and will be hearing from some special guests!

No comments:
We love comments and really appreciate the time it takes to leave one.
Interesting and pithy reactions to a post are brilliant but we also LOVE it when people just say they've read and enjoyed.
We've made it easy to comment by losing the 'are you human?' test, which means we get a lot of spam. Fortunately, Blogger recognises these, so most, if not all, anonymous comments are deleted without reading.
