(Formerly the Torrance Children's Book Writers)

Whether you dream of becoming a published author, or whether you simply want to jumpstart your writing career, joining a writing group such as the Torrance Children's Book Writing Group will help you get started.

Although our main focus is on writing for children, we welcome writers of all kinds, as well as those who love to read children's books (Middle Grade, Young Adult, Picture Books, etc).

We will share tips, lessons, and learnings on the craft of writing, as well as have discussions on various writing books and children's books. We will discuss how to create characters so real, they practically jump off the page, how to weave storylines to make an interesting plot, what writing software to use to help you write your novel, how to re-write and edit your manuscript, how to submit query letters to agents and editors and how to get published.

We will also have critique groups so you may get constructive feedback on your manuscripts, as well as writing sessions to spark the next great idea, or simply to practice writing so you can find your voice and style.
