“It's such a wonderful feeling to watch a child discover that reading is a marvelous adventure rather than a chore. I know that many writers for children say they do not write specifically with a child audience in mind ... This isn't true for me. I am very aware of my audience. Sometimes I can almost see them out there reacting as I write. Sometimes I think, 'Oh, you're going to like this part.” ThinkingKnowsWritingMindChildrenI CanSometimesFeelingsReadingWatchesAudienceWonderfulAdventureMarvelousReactingChores Author:Zilpha Keatley Snyder
“I try when I'm writing to leave enough "space" for people to have their own interpretation, and not to direct it toward one conclusion. Then the audience would not be reacting, because they are being preached to or lectured at. I don't have that much to say that I think people should listen to me.” PeopleThinkingShouldWritingTryingEnoughSpaceAudienceDirectConclusionInterpretationReactingListen To Me Author:Charlie Kaufman
