EN 343 Writing for Children
An intensive writing workshop focused on the production of publishable fiction and nonfiction for the children’s market, the course provides an exploration of the creative process, including invention techniques, drafting, and revision. Plotting, characterization, and the writing of dialogue and description are examined. Students also engage in an in-depth study of the magazine and book publishing markets so they can effectively target their writings to specific publishers. The course includes such practical considerations as the writing of query letters, working with editors and agents, and preparing manuscripts for submission. It does not count as a literature course.
Prerequisite: Junior standing or above.
