Yes, I know I haven’t been blogging much. Chalk it up to moving…and lots of work to get done. But the big news is the workshop I’m going to be doing at the annual Kid Lit Festival in Lititz at Aaron’s Books on the 12th.I will be doing a writing/editing workshop for any and all writers. If you’re in the area, come on down!

Building upon the popularity of the store’s first festival in 2009, Aaron’s Books is expanding the event locations, adding a fundraiser for local literacy programs, and providing a focus on diversity in children’s literature. Scheduled events for the weekend include a local author’s night, story time with picture book authors and illustrators and special guest Mother Goose, open signing times with the authors, a panel discussion on diversity in literature, an editing workshop for aspiring writers, and a dinner with authors to raise funds for Lancaster Reach Out and Read programs. All events are open to the public and all are free except the Saturday dinner.

The 2010 Lititz Kid-Lit Festival is aided by generous sponsorships from The General Sutter Inn, Linden Hall School For Girls, and The Lititz House Bed & Breakfast.
