Denver South Connect: Writing from Non-Traditional Perspectives

Aug 22, 2024

Southglenn Library, Rooms A & B (6972 S. Vine St, Centennial, CO)

You’ve written a children’s book from the traditional perspective of a human, most likely a child. Have you considered writing it from the non-traditional perspective of an inanimate object? Like a blueberry or a bench? Led by Stacey Simmons, we’ll review beloved children’s books written from the perspectives of a building, a rock, crayons, and others. Then, we’ll spend some time with our own writing playing with this approach. So, bring your ideas and be ready to change your perspectives! For the second half of our Connect, bring a work-in-progress to critique. Bring six copies of one of the following: a PB manuscript, the first five pages of a longer work, a query letter, illustrations, or similar. If you can, bring a snack to share!
