Hello Storyteller’s Inkpot readers,
Just a quick note from Hamline University to invite you to join two of our Inkpot bloggers for a one-day workshop on Saturday, December 4, 2010 at StoryStudio in Chicago, Illinois.
Award-winning young adult and children’s book authors Marsha Qualey and Marsha Chall will present a morning workshop and lunch to give you a sneak peek inside Hamline’s accredited, low-residency master of fine arts in writing for children and young adults program. Qualey and Chall are both instructors in the program. Current students and alumni, as well as the dean of the Hamline University Graduate School of Liberal Studies, will also be in attendance to answer your questions. The cost is $25, including lunch. Attendance is free for SCBWI, CLN and StoryStudio members.
The topics presented at the workshop include ‘How to Capture Your Childhood Memories and Channel Them into Your Writing’ and ‘How to Create Authentic, Novel-Worthy Characters in Your Books.’

Yay for the Marshas! Better than brownies … cooler than November. And a heck of a lot more fun than November, too.
Too bad Chicago is 10-12 hours away from here. I'd be there in a heartbeat otherwise!
Oh, look at all those beautiful Marshas!
And I would imagine the workshop fee would be also waived for anyone named Marsha. Mention this blog comment, you Marshas, and it should happen.
I'm looking forward to the workshop! Good excuse for a weekend in Chicago, too!
Hmm, how about waiving fees for another wonderful "M" name…Monika. 😉
