Aspiring young writers and avid readers, from grades 6 thru 12, will mingle with peers, published authors and book industry professionals featuring several guest speakers, followed by a writing workshop. This event will highlight THE ART OF WRITING FOR THE YOUNG READER.

Guest authors include Dawn Lairamore, author of Ivy’s Ever After, and Rachel Dillon, author of Through Desert Eyes. Dawn’s first novel, Ivy’s Ever After, is a middle-grade fractured fairy tale about a princess and a dragon who team up against the handsome prince. Dawn earned a B.A. in English from the University of California, Davis. She has worked as an editorial assistant for a small publishing house, as a technical writer for a giant software conglomerate, and currently spends her days as a civil litigation paralegal.

Rachel graduated from the University of Wisconsin, Madison in 1994, with a Bachelor of Science in Art, emphasizing in Graphic Design. Rachel is the author and artist of a nonfiction children's book, Through Endangered Eyes - a poetic journey into the wild." Rachel combined her passion for animals, teaching children, and creative expression, to write and illustrate her first book. She will be leading the writing workshop, Writing That Connects With Children. Learn how to write stories and poems that keep a child interested, inspire them to ask questions, and make them want to hear it again.
