Jon Bard, Managing Editor at Children's Book Insider, is offering a FREE e-book on writing for children. "Getting Started Writing Children's Picture Books" is free at
Children's Writer magazine is sponsoring a contest for a fictional story or nonfiction article related to a holiday or season for children age 4. 125-words is the limit. They'd like to see less well-known holidays featured. And keep in mind that the story should appeal to the adults who will be reading it to the children as well. "Winners will be selected on age-appropriateness, use of language, clarity, originality, and the overall quality of writing." Oct. 31 is the deadline. Visit Children's Writer for more details.
Jessica Kennedy, the Differently-Abled Writer, has just posted a new interview with me. Visit her blog and take a peek.
And Just One More Book is starting its 3rd year highlighting children's books. They provide a free online podcast celebrating children's literature--without any advertisements! It's a fun site to visit, and you can call in and be part of the show (1-206-350-6487.) What's a favorite kid's book you'd like to share?
