We children's book writers are busy people. If we spend all our time following blogs, message boards, twitters, websites, and the like, we won't have any time to write.

Thank you, Laurie, for the list. It's full of interesting tips for me to ponder.
Can you recommend a good book that would help me with puncutation in dialogue? Most grammer books I've read leave me more confused than ever.
Hi, Laurie,
Thank you for using my article. I hope it will help other children's writers!
Looks like I need to write some tips for punctuating dialogue next. :)
Happy New Year and Happy Writing!

My favorites grammar books are Strunk and White's The Elements of Style to read and the University of Chicago's Manual of Style as a reference.
