The Hook of the Book Conference May 16, 2015

This is it!! 

We're bringing in master illustrator E.B. Lewis on May 16, 

for a southern Michigan conference aimed at helping illustrators and writers find the hook of their book and present it with the best characters, emotion, setting, sensory details, and composition. 

This conference will change how you think about art in picturebooks.

It will change how you see the world.

We will explore the hook of the book to pull readers into your book and keep them reading.

We will also hear from celebrated author-illustrators 

Matt Faulkner and Leslie Helakoski. 

Their sessions will surprise you.

And you'll have an opportunity to have your work critiqued by E.B. Lewis in group reviews guaranteed to bump up your skills a few notches.

Also, portfolio reviews are available: 20 minutes, one-on-one, E.B,'s perceptions of how to best present your work to editors and art directors.
