xmlns:fb='http://ogp.me/ns/fb#'> Mums Write!: MW Book of the Month

Welcome

Many websites provide guidance on writing for publication, formatting manuscripts, and drafting letters to agents. Mums Write! is different. My aim is to encourage family and friends to write for pleasure, for and about the children in their lives. Is publication a worthy goal? Absolutely. Click here to find out why I think it is. But first and foremost, writing for and about children is worthwhile as an end in itself, because it enriches the experience of raising them. I hope you find this site inspiring, and that you share the fruits of your inspiration with the children and children at heart in your world--and with us at MW. Please comment on the postings, or contact me at joanna.norland@gmail.com if you would like to share work to be posted on this site.
