Learn from the experiences of a panel of seven children’s book writers and illustrators from the Trail Mix critique group.

The panel will speak candidly about what makes success, what keeps them writing, how to critique a friend’s writing, and how a successful critique group comes together. Find out how this group found (and lost!) agents, dealt with rejection, juggled life, got published, and how each one’s journey is so very unique.

Trail Mix is an eclectic assortment of children’s book writers and illustrators who have been meeting for almost 10 years, all aspiring to be traditionally published. Some have been published, some not yet. This panel discussion includes Christi J. Whitney, Jaclyn Paris, Colleen Bennett, Shannon Marrs, Bonnie Clark, and Kim MacPherson.
