From the time when children first began gathering around campfires, we have been seeking tales of wonder–the feeling you get when something is strange and exciting. Most of the books we read are what I call “wonder literature”, yet writing wonder is a lesson seldom taught. This series of videos will delve into what “wonder literature” truly means and how to increase the level of wonder in your novel.
