What makes YA paranormal different than adult paranormal? What makes YA different than other fiction? What do YA readers expect from your story? We’ll explore the differences from your story idea, story opening, middle, and end. In this workshop, we’ll discover how character, plots, and setting can be used to enhance your YA paranormal story. As a bonus we’ll take a look at markets, marketing yourself, and the submission process. I will be providing feedback.
