How to Write For Parents with Dr. Paul Reeves
Manage episode 289965872 series 2125722
Could you write about your family? And if so, how would you decide what to include and what to take out?
I've just finished writing a book about my experiences of being a dad to three children, and I've had to make some decisions about what to leave in and what to take out. After all, I want to be fair to the children.
And although my editor has given me some good advice, ultimately the best person to look over it and give their opinion will be my wife!
It was whilst researching the book that I came across former school principal Dr Paul Reeves. His book is very cleverly titled A Principal's Family Principles. His book is full of stories of his own family and his experiences as a high school principal.
I was interested to know why he decided to write a parenting book, how he got it into the hands of other dads and what it's like to write in this particular type of genre.
In this episode we discuss:
- Where the idea for the book came from
- How to decide what to leave in and what to take out
- Paul's take on bullying
- Which chapters especially resonated with the readers
