Ways to Grow as a Writer (Part 1): Critical Writing

I wrote an article for the Canadian Society of Children’s Authors, Illustrators and Performers (CANSCAIP) about one of my many mind-blowing take-aways from my first semester in an MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults at the Vermont College of Fine Arts (VCFA). In it, I discuss how critical analysis of children’s books can give us insight into our creative writing.

The article first appeared in the CANSCAIP News Summer 2018 issue. Thanks to CANSCAIP, you can read the full article here.
