Finding the right voice and tone is key to any book’s success, but how does the age of your intended audience affect how a story evolves? Is writing for young readers any different than writing for adults?

Annabel Lyon has published two of the country’s most acclaimed novels: The Golden Mean, which won the Rogers Writers’ Trust Prize and was a finalist for the Giller Prize, the Governor General's Award, the Ethel Wilson Prize and the Commonwealth Prize, and The Sweet Girl, also a Giller nominee. Her two bestselling young adult novels All-Season Edie and Encore Edie have delighted readers of all ages.
