On October 18th, 2012, Susan Violante and Victor R. Volkman spoke with children’s author, book coach, and reviewer Virginia S. Grenier. She is the founder & owner of Stories for Children Publishing, LLC, award-winning editor-in-chief of Stories for Children Magazine. In a wide-ranging discussion, we covered many key areas including
- What is required for a character to be believable?
- What is key in making a book part of a series?
- What tips can children’s authors use to relate to their readers?
- Are there topics not suitable for children’s or young adult books?
