Children’s Authors’ Bootcamp

This weekend was dedicated to learning from the professionals the market and categories of children's literture, as well as covering the basics of the writing craft: POV, characters, plot, etc.

I feel very spoiled - this was a wonderful workshop taught by people who teach what they know, and have known for several years. The booklist to read before bootcamp included a selection from each of the different age categories, and were used in the course as practical examples of the writing basics being covered.

I highly recommend this class - well worth the time and money for begining writers and those interested in children's picture books, chapter books, middle grade books, and young adult fiction.
