The Children’s Writers’ Coaching Club has started a blog chain.
From now until next Friday, members of the chain will visit each site on the chain at least once and leave a comment.
These blogs all contain information about writing and/or illustrating for children, so you’ll want to visit the blogs on the chain, too. And, when you do, please leave a comment.
Here are the members of the Blog Chain. Enjoy!

Whether you’re a world-famous children’s author, or you’re just starting to write for kids, you need to have a blog.
Why?
Because a blog will do the following:
1) Help you get in the habit of writing regularly. And even the posts to your blog should be well-written with a little pizazz - which will be excellent writing practice and help you become a more disciplined writer since you’ll need to post to your blog at least 3 to 5 times a week.
2) Help you establish a readership. You’ll be providing readers with helpful and/or interesting information each time you post to your blog. Information people will begin to look forward to reading on a regular basis. If you’re an established children’s book author, children and adults who read your books will look to your blog to find out what’s new with you. They’ll want to know your current writing project(s), new books you have coming out soon, and information about author visits you might offer to schools, libraries, etc.
3) Help you establish yourself as expert in the world of children’s writing and publishing. Even before you are published, you can interview more experienced children’s writers and post these interviews to your blog or write reviews of new children’s books.
