Terrific! You’re not only a great writer, you’re a great speaker. Speaking of voice, personality… Thank you!
You said to write the story first and then read the other books so you aren’t accidentally mimicking someone else’s story. All these years I’ve been taught the exact opposite (but rebelled against thr norm- LOL). Because what you said makes complete sense. Thank you!
Excellent presentation!
Thank you, Vicky, for an excellent presentation!
Vicky, your tips are all spot on! Thank you!
Thank you, Vicki. I agree with your statement about submitting a polished manuscript to an agent. Agents do not earn money through editing. I loved how you mentioned that voice is important. People remember its vibrancy and personality, and they’ll recommend the book to others.
Thank you, Vicki. You’ve inspired me to start rewriting that picture book I put down years ago.
Thank you, Vicky. Apologies for misspelling your name previously.
Thank you, Vicky, for all the advice delivered so cheerfully and encouragingly.
I love this presentation. Must admit, I haven’t really consciously thought about voice. I love “Eyes that Kiss in the Corners”
Clear, with great examples. I have written and published middle grade fiction and had no problem with voice; but now I see what I am doing wrong when I have attempted picture books. Thank you for a great session.
Thank you, Vicky Weber, for an enlightening session. The definition of voice as personality is so helpful. I also loved your statement…if you can dream it, you can do it! It’s my dream and I’m doing it! Thank you, too, for the Workbook. Your support on this journey is so appreciated.
