Here are a couple of comments from Norfolk Adult Education feedback forms on the week-long summer course. I’m always so relieved that courses seem to go well. Phew!
“Paeony was a great tutor. Very patient and gave good constructive advice. She made it fun and full of variety and gave lots of practical advice. I would recommend this course.”
“Provided lots of ideas, inspiration and clues as to the way forwards. I feel much clearer as to how to write for children.”
NEW
Writing Children’s Picture Books Thursdays 7-9pm
from 23 February, 2012
Norfolk Adult Education,
Wensum Lodge, Norwich
This is a new adult education evening class aimed at beginners and those who’ve started to write picture books.
I’ll be tutoring this new course and will pass on everything I wish I’d known when I first began writing picture books for children.
The course will run for 5 weeks and during that time students will unravel the specialist skills needed to write picture book stories for 3-6 year olds. Don’t worry, you don’t need to be able to illustrate (although illustrators are very welcome).
In a relaxed and friendly class everyone will develop their visual awareness and fiction writing skills, and gain an understanding of contemporary picture book publishing. At the end of the course I hope all the students will be inspired to continue writing.
