As a past instructor, I can’t recommend the Writing Excuses Retreats enough. Fun times with @fondalee.bsky.social
They still have seats available for their fall cruise, which includes a storytelling masterclass with award-winning @maryrobinettekowal. www.tickettailor.com/events/writi...

"Great, action-packed light horror/spooky paranormal fantasy for boys and girls at middle elementary and up, with crossover potential to YA. Definitely going to be adding this to my reading list for upper elementary and middle school workshops. Can't wait for more!" ~GR Review.
