I'm excited to be attending the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators winter conference in New York this year! I have been working on a children's book series and investigating the industry for sometime now and eager to be enveloped in this environment - There are so many individuals that are tapped into the wonder~filled world of creativity in this business. I am giddy to explore the event and it's possibilities. (Plus I get to experience a snowy winter - a rare treat!)
Here is a blurb in reference to the Simon series:
I have loved volunteering - running the arts program for elementary school kids, and being in the classrooms heading up activities and study. I have drawn a great deal of inspiration from these experiences and continue to be interested in creating opportunities for kids to be truly creative through the arts. I am acutely aware that the majority of our kids are no longer offered opportunities to explore the creative arts through the public school system, and am excited to be currently creating a solution through the vehicle of a children's book series. This character driven series weaves together creative writing, story telling, drawing, illustrating, and artistic media study. In addition, each book uniquely offers the reader the opportunity to continue the story line and illustrations using different art medium.
