  Learn To Write- Your Story And The Background

  Authors have a lot of mundane details to wade through when they learn to write. Even when you think you have one aspect mastered, you may turn around and find that another nuance has been entirely overlooked. Each part of a story is like a puzzle that must fit together tightly to create an engaging overall picture for your readers. When you are dealing with children’s books, this is even more important. An adult reader may be able to follow inferences or overlook slight discrepancies. Children, however, need clear and manageable plots to stay engaged in the reading. Your story, and the background surrounding it, can set the stage for the action. However, there are certain things to pay attention to when writing for children.

  Don’t Over Explain

  Imagine you are in a family event and watching from the sidelines as a family member tries to talk to their child. Usually, the adult will cut right to the chase, spending thirty seconds or so going over the main points that the child needs to grasp. Then, almost inevitably, they will begin to go on and on about the details, nuances and moral interpretations surrounding the child’s action. Even as another adult, it is more than apparent that the child stopped listening after those first few sentences; they haven’t added any value. In fact, they may prove so distracting that the child subsequently forgets the important point altogether!

  As an author, what does this scenario have to do with how you learn to write children’s books? Simply put, kids just plain have short attention spans and limited ability to stay focused on complex situations. When it comes to the background of your story, keep this at the forefront of your mind at all times. Many background details don’t need to be added at all. If the story has common settings, stating the background in one or two sentences is more than sufficient. Picture books add details with the illustrations, while children’s novels can add background details in bits and pieces as the plot unfolds. Leave plenty of room for imaginative interpretation; that, after all, is the fun of reading in the first place.

  Keep the Background Understandable

  While children do like to use their imagination, they also have a limited capacity to put themselves in situations that are entirely unfamiliar. As you begin to learn to write your children’s book, step back and imagine yourself at that age. One of the biggest strengths of a skilled children’s author is really getting inside the heads of their young readers. Choose supporting details that can be easily understood by kids. This doesn’t necessarily mean that it needs to be something that they are personally familiar with. In fact, fantastical backgrounds are perfectly appropriate, as long as the details are clearly understood. For example, it works to set a story on board a pirate ship. While there isn’t likely a child alive that has actually been on a pirate ship, the fantasy surrounding that is quite clear to most kids: pirates are rough; they like to rob other ships; they might want you to walk the gangplank. Of course, realistic backgrounds are even easier to include in your stories.

  Do Your Homework

  As a writer, it can be extremely tempting to make assumptions about a particular background or situation. In fact, many things are common sense and you may actually have some general knowledge to support a certain interpretation. When this doesn’t interfere with the plot or storyline, it can be acceptable to incorporate a more general background as you learn to write. However, if you are basing a storyline on a particular chain or events, or a true story, you need to do more specific research about the background. This doesn’t necessarily mean that you need to include every detail in the story itself. What it does do is give you the knowledge that you need to determine what details are necessary for inclusion in the background. In addition, doing adequate research will save you from embarrassment as an author. While many readers may not pick out the background mistakes, others will and that will interfere with their enjoyment of the plot and characters.

  When you learn to write, there is no such thing as too much attention to detail. You can, however, incorporate details and background in an incorrect way. Because of the short word count of a children’s book, there is much less room for making mistakes in this area. As with character and plot, make sure that everything that you include has a distinct, specific and understandable purpose.

The scripts are written by using minimum number of strokes (mostly 4), these are ‘self-generating’ (such that children themselves can recreate those by following some principles) and create absolutely no change in the speaking sound or style of the language. The scripts are so easy to identify and write that it is possible for the children to learn within 25%-50% of that required for the traditional script. This may save huge time, resources and energy now required in children’s education. “SUS” can be used as second or alternate script of any language. Programs can be made for substituting the traditional scripts of any language by SUS scripts just by pressing a key. Using one script in writing many languages may be highly advantageous for the internet / mobile communications and the printing industries.

  1-2-1 Discipleship $9.99 “Lack of depth and maturity in the worldwide church is a major problem. Very few Christians really know their Bibles well and can apply the Word to their daily lives. Few really live as “salt and light” in a dark world. Most make little impact for the Kingdom or know how to share their faith simply and in such a way that people want to listen. Sadly many are not even aware their Christian lives could be any different and so they live frustrated. Could it be that we have failed to follow what Jesus commanded? His very last command before he returned to heaven was very simple “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father, Son and Spirit and teaching them all I’ve commanded you. And surely I am with you even to the end of the age” (Matthew 28:18-20). A person’s last words before they die or leave should be important and Jesus certainly wasn’t going to waste the opportunity when his disciples were listening so intently… Make disciples — Jesus knew that if his disciples did that, then all else that might be necessary would follow on. If we get the discipling part right then the church will grow and the church can become wide AND deep, giving life and refreshment instead of only disappointment and frustration. This book aims to explain what discipleship is and give practical guidelines for discipling others. I feel compelled to write it because few seem to have been discipled themselves and good books on the topic seem surprisingly scarce. I was one of those who had to learn everything by trial and error. This book is the kind that I was looking for but didn’t find. I hope this might ensure your way is a little easier.’ Christine Dillon
