From the SCBWI Video Vault - Linda Sue Park Tells Us To Get Out Of Our Characters' Heads

More wisdom and inspiration from the SCBWI youtube channel...

In this under-six minute video recorded back in 2002, Linda Sue Park schools us in story...

"In writing and in life it's what happens that matters."

and

"Story does not happen in someone's head - it happens in the world."

and

"All the books I love have a character I care about in situations that interest me."

Thanks, Linda Sue!
