Welcome to the Write for a Reason podcast. My name is Janet Wilson; I'm a publisher of Christian fiction for young people with Dernier Publishing. If you are a Christian, and new to writing stories for kids and teens, stay tuned for encouragement, creative writing tips and actionable strategies you can implement immediately to become a better writer, and get your books out into the world.

Today we’re going to be looking at surprises and twists!

These can deepen the emotional impact of your story, which, of course, is a great thing.

Enjoy, then get adding those surprises...
