Kim’s Workshops

One Writer’s Journey

Poetry Clinics
Kim works with teachers to design just the right poetry clinic for each grade level. She provides instruction and examples of form and engages students in exercises to enhance their own poetry writing skills.

What To Do With The Writer In You
Kim shares writing tips, explains the business side of publishing and provides many examples of publishing opportunities for children and teens. This workshop can also be modified for adults who are interested in writing for children.

Kim would be happy to design a program to meet the specific needs of her audience. Feel free to email with your ideas.
