I'm a member of SCBWI and I've just read some feedback from an Agent that the only thing wrong with it was that I was making things harder for myself by putting an older age group (young teen) on the synopsis than necessary because a younger age group would love what I'd written.
The feedback I've had up to know was negative but that paragraph from the Agent has given me a huge grin and the belief that I really can write for children, I just need to be more careful about the ages that I'm writing for is all!
Feeling so good right now!

That's great news :cheerleader:

Thank you Pip!

I've also written just over 16,000 words in the last 3 days for NaNo so I'm ahead of my plans now!
Yaaay!
-
16,000 wow that is a lot in such a short space of time, I admire your motivation!
You sound like you have a real talent for writing to receive such feedback :)
-
Up to 20k now! lol
Thank you FluffySeal! I'm thinking that I need to make my Young Adult novels into, dunno, into young teen or something? Something for me to ponder on after NaNo! lol

I love writing but have been struggling lately with poetry and a novel I started a while back.

In all seriousness, don't look at your novel for months... the moment you think about it the time starts again, just completely forget about it for a minimum of 3 months, but 6 months is better, then read it as if for the first time, then write whatever comes into your head, even if it doesn't make sense, just write and write and write some more that's what editing is for! :happy0158:
