Stephanie here! Over the weekend I taught at the Johnson County Library Writers Conference, which was a fantastic event. And free! If you live in the Kansas City area, you should definitely watch for it next fall.

Today I have the privilege of sharing Go Teen Writers Live Episode 6:


You have to at least watch the first 15 seconds when Shannon causes me to lose my focus. We’re not very polished in our videos, but we do have lots of fun.

The questions we answer are about how to plot a series, how to avoid cliches in your writing, and how to create creatures for your stories that are cool and serve a purpose.

If you’ve missed old episodes, you can click on that tab up top that says, “Go Teen Writers LIVE” or subscribe to our YouTube channel. (You also get to see the videos early that way!)

How’s NaNoWriMo going, for those of you who are participating?
