This March 16th I have the immense honour of speaking alongside six truly great children’s book creators in The Writing Barn’s online seminar about nonfiction picture books.

I’ll be speaking on the topic “Making Room for the Illustrator” and touching upon real-world visual research and how illustration can contribute to nonfiction storytelling.

Here is a one-time opportunity to learn new ideas, methods and approaches to creating nonfiction picture books from seven of the most successful book creators in publishing AND help save South Africa’s wildlife at the same time. In this fast and fun, 90 minute event we will cover every facet of the creation process from research and ideas to creating and selling your book. Above all, you will discover how to take known facts and transform them into a true story that is uniquely yours — exactly what agents and editors are searching for.

Led by the amazing group Children’s Book Creators for Conservation, this webinar will be full of unique insights and take aways. This is a charity event with $30 of your registration fee going directly to Wild Tomorrow, a nonprofit working to restore wildlife and wild places in South Africa.
