You will find so many wonderful bits of wisdom in this interview, but we wanted to call your attention to three of them. To paraphrase Kim:

“Don’t think your child is ‘stuck’ at the age of 8, or 10, or 12. Lots of things play a part in their development, and you never know what the future holds for them.”

“Writing is more about idea generating and editing than the first draft.”

“If kids did not require fun in their diet, we would not have aisles of toys at major retailers. It’s part of how they learn and what brings joy to their childhood.”

We promised you more about WriteShop from the blog, and these three blogs touch on issues we discussed in the interview:
