If you have questions about writing and publishing for children, this week is your chance to get answers to those questions.
All this week, Harold D. Underdown will be the guest on Book Bites for Kids, every afternoon at 2:00 central time on blogtalkradio.com.
Underdown is a children’s book editor, working as a consulting editor at present. Previously, he was Vice President and Editorial Director at ipicturebooks. Before that, he was editorial director of the Charlesbridge trade program, and he has also worked at Orchard Books and Macmillan. Underdown is the author of The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Publishing Children’s Books, now in its third edition. He speaks at conferences, provides editorial services to publishers and authors, and maintains an informative web site about children’s publishing called The Purple Crayon.
Today (Tuesday) Underdown will talk to Book Bites for Kids host, Suzanne Lieurance, about who he is and what he does, plus he’ll give plenty of information about writing and publishing for children.
On Wednesday he’ll cover basic information any writer needs to know to get started as a children’s writer.
On Thursday, he’ll discuss what happens after a writer signs a contract with a publisher and what it is like working with a publisher.
On Friday, he’ll talk about what’s going on right now in the world of children’s publishing. All this, and much, much more!
