Many of Catherine Chidgey’s novels feature child narrators, from The Wish Child and Pet to The Book of Guilt (and, arguably, Tama Magpie in The Axeman’s Carnival). In this workshop, Chidgey will discuss how she created these characters and their voices, guiding you through a series of exercises to help you to practise writing your own child narrators as three-dimensional figures who ring true without ever sounding twee.
