I’ve just returned from the CWIG’s Conference in London - a day full of inspirational speakers and top tips about self promotion. Frank Boyce Cottrell spoke about the ‘enchantment of reading’ and a number of successful authors gave practical advice. But something was wrong. I couldn’t put my finger on it until one of the speakers told us: ‘there are enough writers already - we just need more readers.’ I looked around the room. That was it. Nearly all of the published children’s writers in the building were white (myself included)! Having attended a Muslim Writer’s Conference the previous month (full of unpublished writers of various nationalities), I felt certain that we do need more writers. We need more diverse voices and their stories need to be told. But are children’s publishers ready to start listening?

I agree with the Blog on the CWIG’s conference. There is plenty of room for more children’s authors. The need is for diveres material to suit all tastes. If the books appeal to children they will read them. However there are two problems. One is the difficulty writers have in getting their work published and the other is the problem of getting publicity so that children know what is available to them.
