Have you always wanted to write a picture book? This class will give you the tools for doing so: creating memorable characters, identifying the central conflict, beginnings and endings, story structure and plotting, writing lyrical language, and other elements of craft. We will also focus on the children’s book market (including studying successful recent picture books) and getting published. The class will include discussions, writing exercises and group critiques.
