One of my writers emailed me over the weekend asking if I was teaching the Intensive Picture Book Workshop any more — so I brought it back for the summer.
I started teaching this workshop at Southern Methodist University in 1999, and it has gone through many iterations over the years. This version has 95 picture book lessons and SIX 30-minute Zoom meetings to develop the story arc of your fiction or nonfiction picture book as you write and revise in poetry or prose.
Q. What are the dates for the Summer 2026 Intensive Picture Book Workshop?
A. Enroll anytime between June 9 and July 10 for this self-paced workshop that ends on Saturday, August 29.
- Are you writing a fiction picture book story?
- Are you writing a picture book biography?
- Are you writing a preschool concept book?
- Are you writing an information book?
- Are you writing poetry or prose?
There are lessons on the private site for EACH type of picture book, including rhyming picture books! Choose the lessons that match your manuscript.
In 2025, my writers published 172 books! (And most of them took this picture book workshop!)
