Read by the Author!

So important to understand her actual voice after reading many of her beloved books!

🔥Easy to read/listen to advice initially crafted as a course with lots of writing prompts that educate nonetheless even if you don't do them (guilty!)

🤔Many great takeaway tips that will inevitably make my middle-grade manuscript stronger like integrating more body language and creating speech mannerisms for each character.
