Write The Book: Conversations on Craft

Vermont author and poet Rebecca Valley, author of the chapbook The Salvageman, whose new book is Curious Cases: True Crime for Kids - Hijinks, Heists, Mysteries and More (Bloom Books for Young Readers).

This week’s Write the Book Prompt was generously suggested by my guest, Rebecca Valley. Let a main character or a community about which you are writing grapple with an unsolved mystery. This mystery could be the main thrust of the story, or it could linger in the background, serving to amplify your characters, and possibly contributing to the ways in which they change.

Good luck with your work in the coming week, and tune in next week for another prompt or suggestion.

NaNoWriMo is coming! Get in touch if you'd like to come on the show to talk about how it's going for you.
