I did ...Yeah, I actually went the other way around. I did a lot of technical writing, including some pubs in smaller special interest mags written for adults. And now I've moved on to teens.

I'm not even sure if I can write in a more mature tone for magazines, but I might give it a shot. :)Jessica Burkhart https://www.blogger.com/profile/01392565903843981091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6767616279966291185.post-18060749838318723842008-10-16T12:38:00.000-04:002008-10-16T12:38:00.000-04:00Best of luck!!!I loved writing my adult book and h...Best of luck!!!<BR/><BR/>I loved writing my adult book and hope to write more, but the teen voice somehow comes easier--go figure!Alyson Noelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13897651759587675373noreply@blogger.com
