Writing a Children's Book? 5 Questions to ask Yourself!
Are you writing a children's book? Have you been writing a little here and a little there but can't seen to see how your children's book will ever get completed? Sometimes we can have the misconception that it is easy to sit down and write a children's book. Children's books are quite short and not complicated right, so it mustn't be that hard? Well actually it's not as easy as you may think! Because children's books are shorter, there are certain restrictions you encounter which can make it difficult. Mainly because of the choice of words you use. The best way to get to the end result of a well written and thought out children's book is to plan how you will get there.
Once you have that idea, its time to start writing a children's book. Set yourself some goals. Ask yourself the following questions:
- When do I want to have my book completed? Set yourself a time-frame for writing a children's book. Try to keep this realistic. There is no point trying to complete your manuscript in a short period of time, causing it stressful for you and your family.
- Who am I writing for? Are you planning to write for babies and toddlers, early readers or advanced readers like teenagers? This has to be one of the most important questions to ask. The genre you are writing for will determine the style of writing to use and every genre has different criteria. It's always best to find out what publishers of your chosen genre are looking for.
- When will I write? Are you up at the crack of dawn or awake till the wee hours? You know yourself better than anyone. Plan to use the time that best suits you as effectively as possible. Maybe you'll write every day or every second day. But set aside the time where you are in the zone to write, even if you spend this time thinking about the next twist in the tale. Writing a children's book will take time.
- How long will I write for? Of course there isn't really a time-frame you can put on the time you'll spend writing. When your in the zone you probably shouldn't stop, unless the house is burning down then you might want to take a break, but there are the times when you get stuck. The most important thing is to allow yourself time to sit, think and write. Even half an hour is better than nothing. Don't forget you have to edit your work in the end anyway so just write, write and write some more.
- Do I need help? If you are having difficulties with certain parts of your story gaining the necessary help and support of those who have been there and done that will benefit you in the long run. Successful authors of children's books will generally be willing to show you the way to achieving your goals and to becoming a published author in your own right.
A children's book or any book for that matter can take awhile to put together. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Once you have your first draft, you'll be ready to edit. Then you'll end up with a professional manuscript to submit to publishers. Think about these guidelines as your writing a children's book and you will be setting yourself to succeed from the beginning. Remember how important it is to set goals so you stay on track and get your book completed when you want to.

Help me find a book set in the Victorian age?
I just read A Great Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray and really liked it so I am looking for another young adult book set in the Victorian age.
Anything by Charles Dickens or Thomas Hardy will fit the bill. Hardy's books take place more in the countryside, while Dickens' take place, generally, in the city. The only one of Dickens' novels which isn't a Victorian novel is "A Tale of Two Cities", which predates the Victorian Era.
Dickens' "Oliver Twist" gives a nice view of a cross-section of England, from the criminals at the bottom to the nice people with money in the upper middle class. Hardy's "Jude the Obscure" deals almost completely with the working class, from those who work the land to those who work in cities, like craftsmen.
If you prefer a specific genre, you can also try the Sherlock Holmes stories. They take place in the late Victorian Era, and because of Holmes' peculiar gifts, they have a lot of detail. They don't focus much on the working class, however. They are some really wonderful mystery stories, though.
