I think probably you can either write for kids, or you can't. That ability to imaginatively be a child and see the world as a child and feel and think like a child - you either have that ability or you don't.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Writing for children isn't easy. Kids will abandon a story that doesn't interest, enchant, delight, thrill, or terrify them. But when you can find a way into a young reader's imagination through something as simple as words on paper, well, there's nothing more satisfying.
You cannot write for children They're much too complicated. You can only write books that are of interest to them.
I mean, I don't write for kids.
Now I don't really write for adults or kids - I don't write for kids, I write about them. I think you need to do that, otherwise you end up preaching down.
I loved to write when I was a child. I wrote, but I always thought it was something that you did as a child, then you put away childish things.
I do not really write for children: I write only for me and for the few people I hope to please, and I write for the story.
It is extremely important to me to write for children.
I don't write for children. I write and someone says it's for children.
Kids are naturally inventive and curious and creative, but most adults have had that beaten out of them. Writing is a form of play; you have to get rid of all those internal censors that we adults have, the things that say, 'Don't go there, that's not allowed.'
You must write for children in the same way as you do for adults, only better.
