And I’m happy to be presenting the first of the writers workshops in the Oregon SCBWI professional series The Next Level. It’s called Low or No Cost Marketing and it’s all about collaborating with booksellers, teachers, librarians and your fellow writers and illustrators to help your books reach their readers. It’s a very hands on workshop from which you will emerge with a concrete and manageable marketing plan. It is geared toward writers and illustrators who have a book under contract or in print but anyone who is interested in the topic is welcome. I will be presenting along with the wonderful illustrator David Hohn.
