Hello, fellow writers! I sometimes get emails from other adults interested in writing for children. I hope the resources on this page will be helpful to you.
Some of my own blog posts on the writing process can be found here.
I also teach an Introduction to Writing Picture Books workshop. For more details, please contact me.
