Hi there you beautiful writer! :)
Jon here with something very exciting: We’ve created a new weekly online event –
The Kidlit Distancing Social.
Every week, join Laura and some great surprise guests to chat about children’s literature, share your writing triumphs and catch up on the latest kidlit news.
These live video events are completely free to anyone who loves children’s books. Each will last about an hour.
It's the perfect way to stay connected and inspired during these difficult times.
The Kidlit Distancing Social will take place
every Thursday evening at 5 PM Pacific, 8 PM Eastern.
Our very first Distancing Social is this Thursday, April 2nd. Laura and a surprise guest will celebrate the life and work of the late, great Tomie dePaola, and you can participate by chatting with us about your favorite dePaola books.
No need to register, just show up. All the details are right here:
https://writeforkids.org/blog/2020/03/announcing-the-kidlit-distancing-social/ And yes - please share this link with everyone you know who loves children's books.
(And we will be recording each Distancing Social and offering them for replay if you can't make it live.)
