Here’s a comprehensive website devoted to teen readers and writers: TeensReadToo.com

You’ll find some entertaining stuff, including the nominations for the Best Books for 2007, which include my own Singer in the Snow.

And here’s another great site for young writers: Resources for Teen Writers

Visit Music and Writing for some of the PowerPoint presentations I use in teaching, and for my article “Five Music Lessons for Writers.”

Here are some young writers’ workshops:

• Youth Writer-in-Residence at Hugo House in Seattle
• Puget Sound Writers Project at the Univ. of Washington

• Young Writers Workshop at the University of Virginia

The Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, or SFWA, has an active committee investigating and helping to prosecute scam agents, book doctors, publishers, and editors. If you’re in search of any of these, first visit our site to know which of them may have been investigated or have received complaints: Writerbeware.com Please know that legitimate agents do NOT charge authors fees to represent them. You can learn more by visiting the website for The Association of Authors Representatives, also.
