Lisa Moore Ramée, whose debut middle grade novel is A Good Kind of Trouble (Balzer + Bray).


This week’s Write the Book Prompt was suggested by my guest, Lisa Moore Ramée, and was inspired by an exercise that was assigned in the workshop she attended led by Renée Watson. Take your two main characters and put them in direct opposition. Have them fight or argue about something that they really care about. You may or may not end up using the scene, but it will probably help clarify who your characters are and what they want.


Good luck with your work in the coming week, and tune in next week for another prompt or suggestion.
