Do any of your characters have children? How well do you write them?

Yes and well, I hope.

Several of my characters have children and the ages vary from toddler to adult. I think I write the kids pretty well. I’ve had a good deal of experience working with children, through volunteer work and jobs, so I have a good base.

I enjoy writing children. It gives a different perspective on things. And I get to write one of my characters’ daughter stealing cookies when she thinks no one’s paying attention. I really can’t do that with my grown-up characters.
