Write Your Own Children's Book Workshop

If you've always wanted to try your hand at writing a children's book, but never knew just how to start, this is the workshop for you! Join Chelsea Tornetto and myself, as we lead you through the process from beginning to end. At the end of four weeks, you'll have a completed manuscript you can submit to publishers or self-publish.

Author Visits / Virtual Events

I would love to come and talk to your school, church, or writing group about what it looks like to become a published author and my personal experience with stepping out of my comfort zone and into my calling.

I am also available for book signings specific to Yoga Baby and the children’s market. These 30 minute sessions are great for children under the age of 5 and include a short yoga flow, quick tips for practicing at home, and the benefits of yoga for parents and baby.

Amanda and Sarah put together a writers conference that served both beginner and intermediate authors as well as those who have not yet published but desire to. Additionally, they used their own experiences at the start to set us up for the day, encouraging us with their own stories and providing information to help us share our own. The presenters they invited and their topics afforded attendees a selection of meaningful subjects and provided practical material that could be applied immediately. Perhaps, most importantly, it was obvious Amanda and Sarah are passionate about this craft and helping others reach their writing goals. They have a heart to serve!

I wish Sarah and Amanda hosted writing events when I first began writing and trying to understand the publishing industry. Their experience and encouragement are invaluable for aspiring authors. New(ish) writers must make Sarah and Amanda’s events part of their writer’s journey.

I recently attended the Next Step Writing Workshop by Amanda Flinn. Wow! It was crammed packed with various tools on how to take my writing to the next level. From sharing her personal writing journey, to offering breakout sessions by other knowledgeable authors, to networking with other writers, it was an event well worth the money. If anyone is interested in becoming a better writer, I highly encourage you to attend Amanda's next workshop!

Amanda's workshops are designed by a "real", "regular" person for those same kinds of people. She connects you with other developing writers, and brings in people who have achieved success. All of these things give the workshop both a professional, but personal feel that stays with and inspires you! Best spent $40 I've laid down in a long time.

The Next Steps Writers Workshop was just what I needed at this stage in my writing. I learned what “next steps” to take and I was able to pinpoint specific areas I really need to challenge myself in.
