Six inspiring intensives!
We'll have six half-day intensives covering just about every topic a kidlit writer could want:
Newbery Award-winning author, Linda Sue Park, is serving up "Sentence Sense" so you can learn how to make every word count.
Senior Scholastic editor, Matt Ringler, is hosting a writers' roundtable where 15 writers will have the opportunity to get first hand feedback on their first five pages. Act fast if you want your pages read! (You can still register for the intensive if you want to keep your pages to yourself. It's always good to hear how an editor thinks, and maybe even better when it's some other brave soul's manuscript on the table!)
Deb Halverson, author of Writing Young Adult Fiction for Dummies, will teach you all about teen speak.
We have a terrific two-for-one deal in the afternoon, with pairs of authors teaming up to bring intensives! Authors Kami Kinard and Rebecca Petruck will show you how to build characters with heart and humor, while authors Heather L. Montgomery and Jodi Wheeler-Toppen will share the art of using science to engage readers of both fiction and non-fiction.
And last but far from least is the Founder of Fiction University, author Janice Hardy, who's ready to bring your novel to life!
You can find out lots more about this batch of inspiring intensives at the Southern Breeze website, where you can also register for wik'18. Hurry, Breezers, because these opportunities will fill up fast! Your Early Bird registration discount will soon fly away!
But wait! We have one more gift for you because we're still in a Season of Giving here at the Southern Breeze blog. We're serving up a special surprise gift today! So if you've registered, and you comment on this post by noon on December 31st, you might win. If you spread the word and let us know in the comments, we'll add your name twice to the drawing.
Everyone loves to win a surprise, right? Though everyone's a winner at wik'18!
