Kudos to Yvonne, Vanessa, Susan and Andrea for making the short list for CANSCAIP's Writing for Children Competition!

Hi, Brian.

Great news! My two submissions for the CANSCAIP Writing for Children Competition have advanced to the shortlist – “I am a Cheetah” in the picture books and “The Memory Collector” in the YA category.

My heartfelt thanks go out to you and my classmates from our Tuesday night Intensive class and the Monday KidLit class. Thank you for these opportunities.

Hi, Brian.

I made the CANSCAIP shortlist for two of my picture books – “Tofino Tidepools” and “The Best Beach Day Ever”!

Hi, Brian.

My story has reached the shortlist for CANSCAIP :-) Your feedback and support on that story were invaluable.  And it is really cool to see so many people I've met in your courses and workshops on the list as well. 

Thank you,

Susan Wollison

 

Also, special congrats to another woman from my classes who made the short list in the picture book category this year: Andrea Bishop for “Good Morning/Good Night.”

Plus, I recognize more names from one-day workshops – congratulations to all of you!

CANSCAIP offers this competition for would-be authors of picture books, middle grade, and young adult novels each year. This is a great opportunity, and thanks to the wonderful efforts of numerous volunteers, the hundreds of entries, not only get read, they get comments.
