Here are some upcoming writing events that might interest you or the teen in your life.
Ten Steps on Your Path to Publication
When I moved to Matthews, NC a few years ago I was delighted to discover Matthews Christian library walking distance from my home. Of course, I introduced myself to the librarian, Tiffany Slack, and told her about my passion for books and writing.
Recently, Tiffany contacted me and asked if I would be willing to participate in their 25th anniversary celebration. She asked if I would talk about getting published since many of their patrons ask about that.
It just so happened that had been my topic at a recent workshop for a library in the Charlotte Mecklenburg system, and so I replied with a proposal.
And just like that, this is going to happen in May!

WOW! A Week of Outstanding Writing
Do you have a tween or tween who loves writing? In June I will lead a fun writing camp for kids. Please pass this information along to teachers or parents who know a child who might love learning more about writing a short story. I’ll use activities from my book, Teaching the Story: Fiction Writing in Grades 4-8.
Writing Christian MG or YA Fantasy
If you dream of writing middle-grade or young-adult fantasy, the virtual Write2Ignite Master Class still has a few spots open. For an interview with speaker Amy Earls, click here.
Questions about any of these events? Feel free to email me.
Congratulations to Marci Whitehurst who won a copy of Linda Phillips’ book, CRAZY.
