Want to write a mystery for kids or teens, but you're not sure how? Writing for Young Adult (YA) or middle-grade (MG) readers requires a different approach, and writing YA and MG mysteries is extra challenging. Follow award-winning author Fleur Bradley as she shows you the ropes.

- Create depth with theme and character arcs.
- Build an outline using sequences.
- Find time to write and how to revise your first draft.
- Look for publication once your manuscript is finished.
