August 10-14, I and fellow writers will be teaching courses at the Vancouver Public Library Canadian Book Camp. Here’s the blurb from their website:

Calling all aspiring writers and book lovers! Sharpen your pencils, stretch your typing fingers, and spark your imagination at the Canadian Book Camp!

This unique day Camp lets youth with a passion for reading and writing connect with well-known authors and illustrators. Each morning features a new keynote speaker from the Canadian literary world. After lunch, campers experience a variety of different creative workshops. In this energetic, literary environment, campers are divided into two age groups: 11-13 and 14+.

Our inclusive program welcomes youth who want to try creative writing for the first time, aspiring authors with mountains of manuscripts, and everyone in between!
