Picture Book Critiques, with Kate Jacobs

September 12th, 2018 - October 8th, 2018

with Brooke McIntyre

Group started
Preparing your picture book manuscript for submission? Get your manuscript critiqued by Kate Jacobs, Senior Editor with Roaring Brook Press. You'll also meet other serious kidlit writers, sharpen your eye by giving feedback and receive the benefits of workshopping with a group - like meeting other writers, and learning by exchanging feedback. How it works: Submit your manuscript to the group when the group officially kicks off on September 12th. Then, group members have just over 2 weeks to exchange feedback on one another's work. Kate will post her critiques towards the end of that time. After critiques are complete, we will have a debrief call where each writer gets individual time with Kate to address key feedback themes and discuss both manuscript and writing questions.

Kate Jacobs and Inked Voices are pleased to offer a spot, free of charge, to a writer from a diverse background. Apply: https://inkedvoices.typeform.com/to/xAGTy3
