David Farland is a professional children’s author who shares some of the ideas for helping kids unleash their inner creativity.

_____________________________________________________________________________

Most best sellers and Hollywood blockbusters rely on a couple of guidelines. Those are the same guidelines which can help children as they write.

1. Transport the reader to another time and place.

2. Arouse powerful emotions.

3. Appeal to a wide audience.

David offers free daily writing tips to anyone who wants them. You can get on the mailing list by going to his website or sending him an email.

David also sponsors a contest to encourage creativity in writing and artwork. This year, there were hundreds of entries from around the country with cash prizes going out to several children. The contest will also be held next year, so you can get information about how to enter from his website.
