Comment Below With Your Key Takeaways Or If You Have Questions About The Session.
I needed to hear your invaluable tips about writing rhyming picture books. My key take-away: rhyme works best for quiet stories or lively, energetic stories. The light bulb came on why one of my stories is not coming together no matter what I put down on paper. It is a narrative. Now, I know what to do to rework that story! Thank you!
So glad this was helpful for you!
Thank you. Not sure where the query letter is
Hi Patricia, Robin is offering a discount on editing your query letter if you follow her on social media. You’d need to write the query letter.
Thank you. Not sure where the query letter is
Robin, I’m SOOOO glad you’re talking about this. I’m a children’s book editor as well but don’t specialize in rhyme… so I’m often looking for someone to send them to, as well as explaining much of what you shared here about the importance of perfect rhyme. This should honestly be a must-watch for anyone wanting to write in rhyme.
Thank you, Marcy! I really enjoyed your session too 🙂
What an excellent presentation! Thank you, Robin. I’m interested in following you and having your feedback, but I’m not on Instagram and am concerned about overload. Any suggestions?
Thank you for your kid world, Patricia :). I am also on Facebook, though I don’t post there as often, and you can check out my website for occasional blog posts. Please feel free to contact me if you’re interested in hiring my services at any point. All best.
Ack! That should of course say “kind words”! Darn autocorrect 😉
Thank you for your tips. I love playing with words and have ideas for a children’s book in rhyme. I write in Swedish but this was very helpful for me as well. I guess you don’t speak Swedish so I won’t be able to get your editing on my text unfortunately.
I’m afraid I don’t speak Swedish (though my children have a Swedish background:). But if you ever decide to translate your work into English, I’d be happy to connect with you then.
What a clear and informative presentation! Your tips will be invaluable to my writing. Thank you so much, Robin.
I’m so glad you found them helpful!
Thank you, Robin
I am looking at your website and appreciate your generosity with your freebies.
Writing in rhyme is challenging, yet fun. Thank you for all of the coaching you provided here, today.
Thank you for your kind words, Debbie 🙂
I have written a few stories in rhyme and would love to use your editing skills in the future. I am self publishing and each of my books also has a quilt pattern designed to coordinate with the story. Thank you for the guidance and tips!
You’re welcome, Jennifer! And I love old-fashioned quilts 🙂
