Conferences and Classes
Where I Am Speaking/Teaching in 2024
This page lists online conferences, workshops, and other events where I will be speaking, presenting, critiquing, or otherwise playing a role as faculty, with links to websites for registration if available. I am open to bookings for 2025. I am currently booking online events only.
I can address a variety of subjects, from practical (submissions basics, what publishers do) to craft-related (revision, how editors read).
Remaining 2024 schedule:
November 14 to 17: On campus at the Highlights Foundation with Eileen Robinson and Emma Dryden for a Working Revision Retreat--an evolution of the Kid's Book Revision Retreat Eileen and I have offered for years. We offer plenty of time to write, a daily presentation from faculty, optional consultation time, and online revision materials before the Retreat. (And we now have a full house.)
December 16 and 18, 7 PM Eastern: I will again be offering my Successful Strategies for Submitting... online workshop via Highlights. Learn what you need to do to get ready to send out your manuscript in 2025! $59. Handouts included. Recordings available afterwards, but you must register in advance.
A note on 2025: You can expect the next Crash Course Children's Book Publishing in March, and some mini-workshops in the summer. More to come, so stay tuned...
Other events, including workshops and conferences, to come.
