Shore on 12/13/2017 4:31:23 PM<br /> <div class="asl-wikipage-summary"> <p>Children&#39;s author Diane Z. Shore is a big fan of writing in rhyme because of the enjoyment it brings to children. Shore didn&#39;t know much about poetry or rhyme when she first started writing but learned the craft through studying well-known children&#39;s poets such as Shel Silverstein and Jack Prelutsky. She also practiced her rhyming skills using nursery rhymes as a starting point. Shore strongly recommends that aspiring children&#39;s writers read like a writer, reading for content, structure, and word choice. Most importantly, she says, is to avoid focusing solely on getting published; focus instead on improving your craft. That&#39;s when you&#39;ll see your writing grow and doors will start to open for you. Shore found great success with doing fillers for children&#39;s magazines, including puzzles, poems, and games, which can be a great way to break into the children&#39;s market and sharpen your skills.</p> </div> <div class="asl-wikipage-media"> <p><a href="https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-78/Writing-in-Rhyme-for-Children-and-Getting-Your-Work-Published.mp4">www.authorlearningcenter.com/.../Writing-in-Rhyme-for-Children-and-Getting-Your-Work-Published.mp4</a></p> </div><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: Children’s Books, fiction, Subscriber, video</div>
