Craft Chats: A Child's Perspective

Keenan Norris, Pilar Quintana, and Margaret Verble, moderated by Ethel Rohan It's undeniable that we were all once children, but that doesn't mean it's child's play for writers to center the voice and perspective of a child or teen without veering into oversimplification or preciousness.
