Come with your curiosities, ideas and dreams for writing a picture book. Picture books average 500 words across 32-pages. This class will teach you how to format your picture book manuscripts and write them to maximize wording and page turns.

“Rebekah received her MFA in Children’s Literature with an emphasis in Picture Books. Her debut book is a “Children’s Book” for adults: Alexandra and the Awful, Awkward, No Fun, Truly Bad Dates! Bekah understands the magical craft behind saving space for the illustrations. She delights in teaching how page turns can build tension and humor in a book. Although Bekah writes books for all ages, she believes writing picture books improves her skill across genres.” — Lark & Owl Eventbrite
