You’re writing a picture book? That’s so easy (said no picture book author ever).

You’ve had a story in your head and heart for quite a while now. And you finally, finally! had the courage to put pen to paper.

Now that you’ve written a picture book draft or two (or twelve), you know the reality: it takes A LOT to tell a complete, captivating story in hundreds of words.

You want to write a picture book that kids will want to read over and over (and over) again.

It’s about the story.

It’s about the audience.

It’s about the language you use (and what’s left off the page too).

What you have now might not be a final draft, but it is a working draft.

And maybe the only one who’s read it is you.

Publishing a picture book does not happen quickly. And the longer your manuscript sits on your hard drive untouched, the longer it’s going to take to hold your book in your hands.

Writing a picture book is only half of the story. You need your story polished and ready to go, no matter how you’re going to publish your book.

But that only happens with revision.

Introducing the Picture Book Revision Workshop, a webinar that helps you revise your picture book—and future picture books too.

Hi, I’m Jennifer.

I’m a professional kidlit editor and book coach. Oh yeah, and a kidlit writer too.

I’ve worked with picture book authors around the globe on their manuscripts, from early drafts to polished books ready for printing. And through my work, I’ve seen a lot of picture book authors who are hesitant to share their early drafts. Or they tried, but the feedback they received wasn’t helpful.

This webinar doesn’t replace editing, but it is a tool to help you with your revision and self-editing (for this and future picture books). Then you’ll be one step closer to querying agents or self-publishing. Because aren’t you ready for your book to be out in the world already?

  • you are new to writing picture books.
  • you have had trouble finding critique partners and/or critique partners who write picture books.
