Kindling Words is limited to 60 registrants, and space fills quickly. We have reserved 20 spaces each for authors, illustrators and editors. Group Discussions Smaller groups meet around focused subjects, selected by the participants themselves. White Space Time to fill with everything or nothing. Take a walk or a ski, curl up in a corner and write, tackle that overdue revision, meet up with new and old friends, form an impromptu critique group.
White space is a gift of time.
Participants are invited to tailor the weekend to suit. It is up to each person to make KW light a fire. Warming our hands and sharpening our minds. WHAT KIDS LOVE AND WHY Judy Freeman knows which books motivate, inspire, and intrigue children, and why. She will share with us her own personal list of the best and most memorable children's books of the past decade, discuss what makes them winners, and show us how they can be used with children to turn them into lifetime readers.
