Writing for Children II

Revision is the key to improving your work to reach the next level - publication. But often the hardest thing to figure out is which words to cut, which to leave in, and how to tighten up the rest. This writing workshop will concentrate on revision through sharing your work - picture books, easy readers, nonfiction books, and novels - for constructive feedback from classmates and the instructor. Tips on writing techniques, the submission process, and in-class exercises will also be offered.

Note: Prerequisite: Writing for Children I (WCWP-40186) or equivalent knowledge of children's writing or writing in general; a work in progress; an open mind and keen listening skills. Students may repeat the workshop.
