Children’s Book Writing Level 1: 10 Week Workshop
This was a really fun and motivating class. It is a good entry-level course covering fundamentals of the craft of writing, specifically tailored to consider age-appropriateness. The lectures are informative, and in addition to weekly exercises to submit to the instructor, everyone in the class gets a couple changes to submit a more significant piece of their original work (e.g. a full picture book script, or a couple chapters of a middle grade book) to get workshopped by the rest of the class. I strongly recommend to anyone interested in writing for kids, and I plan on taking Level II when it opens up! -
Children’s Book Writing Level 1: 10 Week Workshop
Kody was a fabulous teacher and I gained a LOT from this course. I was already experienced with creating writing classes, but had taken none explicitly for children's book writing. I appreciated approaching both the lessons and the workshops from that unique perspective, and learned a lot. I'd definitely take another writing class with Kody! -
