Picture Book Workshops

Some writers have an innate sense of picture book structure. Maybe they’ve taken a few workshops or attended a few conferences, while others have figured it out by studying hundreds of picture books or reading countless books on craft.

But, if you’re like me and have written and submitted enough paper manuscripts to deforest a small park, it can be frustrating. (Fortunately for me and our planet, most submissions are now electronic.)

Perhaps the answer lies in more revisions, brainstorming better ideas or instruction. That said, I’m a devote fan of the Highlights Foundation Workshops and have attended many. They are offering an online picture book workshop on plotting from April 5 to May 6, 2021.
