Book Club with Author Sharlee Glenn

WIFYR book club is an extension of the Writing & Illustrating for Young Readers conference. Our book club is open to all writers (and readers). It is FREE and you do not need to be registered for the conference to take part in the book club.

We have monthly zoom meetings with an author presenter and time for Q&A. We discuss everything from picture books through young adult. Many times our authors give writing presentations, so we learn a lot in this group while reading awesome books. We try to keep our meetings at around 40-45 minutes and full stop at an hour.

Tuesday, September 24 at 7PM Mountain Time

Let's Go WIFYR-WRIMO!

WIFYR Does WriMo, when WIFYR authors write a complete novel in the month of November, is just around the corner. Writing a 50,000 word novel in a month is tough. That's nearly 2,000 words a day if you stick to a schedule. How can you make it easier? We'll tell you!

​

Join authors Carol Lynch Williams, Alec Sousa, and Scott Rhoades on October 12, 2024, for some great ideas about preparing to write your novel before November. This event is free and open to the public.

Let's Go WIFYR-WRIMO Free October Event

Online Intensive Writing Workshop

This three-day writing intensive is different from anything Writing & Illustrating for Young Readers has offered in the past. Our choose-your-path-style conference will help strengthen your writing and get you closer to publication. We are offering several intensive classes for writers of picture books, chapter books, middle grade, and young adult fiction and non-fiction. You get to choose four to five of these classes to fill your schedule.

Thursday, October 24 - Saturday, October 26, 2024
