Bootcamp: Writing for children with Isabelle Marinov 3

Join Luxembourg children’s author Isabelle Marinov for this online talk aimed at writers and readers.
Isabelle had a busy January having published two picture books: “The Box Whose Head was Filled With Stars”, through Enchanted Lion Books, and “Leo and the Octopus”, through Templar Publishing. Her agent is also currently approaching publishers with her middle grade novel. Prior to that she has written a number of picture books and screenplays.
But it didn’t happen overnight. A writer since the age of nine, when her parents gave her a red typewriter for her birthday, Isabelle studied law in France and in the US while continuing to write at weekends and during evenings. She began to consider writing as a career after the birth of her first son. In 2017-18 she was a Children’s Literature Fellow at Stony Brook University in Southampton, New York.
A speaker of four languages, Isabelle says English is her preferred language for prose.

During this bootcamp, Isabelle will read from her books, talk about her approach to writing and the process of getting published. Plus, she’ll share some writing exercises that participants will work on during the bootcamp.
This online workshop is aimed at writers of all levels. It is conducted in English.
Participation is free for members of Writers Who Talk, and €10 for non-members.
