Once a writer is able to lay these fundamentals to their story. they are set to write a story that will be great. I am working on applying these tools to my stories and those I am about to write. Yaa

Read MoreAs a PB pre-published author, I struggle with structuring my stories so they bring out the in-depth "magic" I know is buried somewhere in the text. Ebony Lynn Mudd presents a friendly, encouraging course that teaches "structure" from its basic definition to its value in crafting the best picture book possible while offering specific examples along the way. I'm ready to lift my writing to the next level!

Read MoreEbony does exactly as she promises: she delivers content that educates you on how to help yourself improve your own writing. A teacher who inspires independence is the best sort, but when you add in how unbelievably generous she is with her time to make sure no question is unanswered?? 5/5 stars, no notes.
Read LessHave a manuscript that's been through revision after revision and the delivery still isn't working? Maybe it's a draft you're stuck on, and you're so exhausted with the suggestions to use the "try/fail" structure that you are ready to give up. In this three-week course, you will learn how to break the "rules", crack the picture book structure code, and deliver your story to readers in a way that lines up with your vision. We will analyze a variety of picture books, their structures, and what makes them work. By the end of the course, you'll have all the tools you need to identify if your manuscript needs a new structure and what that new structure should be. But most importantly, you'll walk away feeling confident about writing YOUR story YOUR way. Because there's more than one way to tell a story.
