Shannon Anderson’s workshop was very informative and super helpful. I walked away with a deeper knowledge of many techniques that Shannon generously shared. Shannon spent a quality time to listen to every participant and offer her insightful guidance when needed. Loved learning from her. Looking forward for the next one. She is a precious gem of knowledge.

It's wonderful when you know your money is well-spent; Shannon Anderson's workshop for writing picture books does that. Her knowledge is extensive, and her workshop explained each step on the road to my first picture book!

Shannon’s enthusiasm for writing permeates this workshop. We were able to not only learn traits to improve our own writing, but also pointers for consideration in dealing with publishers. Shannon is a wealth of knowledge and experience. Don’t miss out!
Amy Brailey - Merrillville, Indiana
Shannon's picture book workshop takes aspiring authors on a journey through the craft of writing.... from how to come up with an idea for a story all the way to how to get that story published. I came to the workshop hopeful to learn about the process of writing picture books, and I did not leave disappointed.
Matthew O'Brien - Indianapolis, Indiana
“I commend Shannon Anderson for putting together, via a workshop, an excellent encyclopedia of “What to do after completing the Picture Book manuscript?” To me, this Picture Book Part 2 workshop was everything I ever wanted to know in detail about the second part of Picture Book publication. It was a lot less expensive and packed with more information than a Picture Book course, of a longer duration, that I took from another organization. During this workshop, one could feel that she is selflessly disseminating all she learned so that her students can venture out fully informed and with a higher degree of confidence. I highly recommend this workshop for all those who have completed their Picture Book manuscript.”
