Workshops/Residency on Writing Process and Illustrating Children's Books Literature- Creative Writing,
Literature- Authors,
Visual Arts- Painting

Writing in the classroom per grade level. The teachers can combine classes together (one or two are also okay) to focus on the writing/illustrating aspects of creating a childrens' book, whether it is a novel or picture book. Materials are passed around individually in this setting, so it is more personal than an assembly setting, therefore exposing the children to the process in a hands-on manner of what is like to be an author/artist of books. An age-appropriate reading of my work is done. I write and feel comfortable speaking to all ages! Fiction, young stories, poetry, non-fiction, cookbooks - I do it all and the art as well.
$351- $500
