The Benefits of Being an Octopus by Ann Braden

The Middle Grade Writers’ Craft Discussion Group meets monthly to discuss children’s novels aimed at a middle grade (8-12 year old) audience from a writing craft perspective.

We are middle grade writers ourselves, and our goal is to study the techniques used by other writers to improve our writing. For an overview of our past book selections and discussion topics, see our blog at http://www.mglunchbreak.com.    

We welcome both new and experienced writers with an interest in a craft-focused book discussion.
