SCI Lesson (CHC4C) Practical Assignment

I did this a bit backwards. For those of you paying attention you will notice that this project should have come before the previous one. Well I'm sorry but I wanted to tackle the other ones first, okay? Good. Let's move on.

SCI Lesson (CHC5A)

So we are coming to the last part of the course right now and I must say I have enjoyed it a lot more than I actually thought I would. I told you guys at the very beginning about my apprehensions with doing an online course. However I decided early on that if it gave me some feedback on my work and/or some contacts then it would be worth the money.

ABC Event with Author Mary Quattlebaum, Germantown MD

I am really excited to let you know how I got on with this, my first event, as a member of SCBWI! I must be honest the whole thing almost never happened for me but it did and I am so glad that I did this.

Joined SCBWI!!

Well as you know if you have been following my blog I have been taking this whole writing books for Children thing pretty seriously and I do have the great backing of my Fiance who, although we do not have a whole great deal of spare cash, has been behind me 100% from the very beginning. It was her that encouraged me to start the course and now she has done the same with joining SCBWI. The Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators.

SCI Leson (CHC3C) - Practical Assignment

Practical time! In this section I had a choice between three different options for which task to choose. I thought about one for a while before finally deciding to step out of my comfort zone and try something that I have never even given a second thought about, non fiction.

SCI Lesson (CHC3A)

Just when you think you are coasting along nicely something will always come up and bit you in the butt. Something always returns your feet to the ground and refocuses you. This exam was just such an experience.

SCI Lesson (CHC3B)

Back to SCI and yet another question and answer section. This one was actually very interesting and something I hadn't expected at the beginning of the course.
