Here are links to some of our
favorite websites about
children's
books, writing, and just plain cool stuff.
The
Children's Book Council -- a nonprofit organization dedicated
to children's books. It has links to publisher, writers and illustrators,
as well as articles and news.
Society
of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators -- a great organization
for people interested in creating books for children
The
Purple Crayon -- a terrific reference
and resource for anyone interested in children's books. The site
has an interview and an article by WINC member Jacqueline K. Ogburn.
Wildacres
is a marvelous retreat center in the Blue Ridge Mountains. If
a week devoted to writing sounds like your idea of a good time,
then check out the writers' workshops.
The North
Carolina Writers' Network has one of the best slogans ever:
"Writing and Reading: Everybody's Art."
American Library
Association Libraries -- we love 'em and we need 'em, now
more than ever.
