Hi, Brian!

I'm very excited to share that my middle grade nonfiction, Adventures in Math, is coming out October 7! I'll send you a copy :-) 

Thank you so much for your support! I workshopped the first drafts in your Writing for Children class, and through your workshops, I met Patricia Ocampo, from Kids Can Press. Patricia was amazing to work with, I learned so much, and I'm thrilled with how the book turned out!! 

I also submitted a humorous short story for Red Deer Press's YA anthology, I'm Here – and it too will be published this fall! 

I hope you are doing well! Thanks again!!

Warmest regards,

Carleigh Wu

Adventures in Math is available for pre-order from Indigo/Chapters here.

For information on submitting to Kids Can Press, see here, and for information on submitting to Red Deer Press, see here.

And if you’re interested in writing Kid Lit, I have a “How to Get Published” workshop coming up May 31 with literary agent Bridgette Kam of Westwood Creative Artists. Kid Lit is one of Bridgette’s specialties. Details here.

Also, I’ll have a new weekly Kid Lit course this summer. Details to come. ~Brian

 

Hi, Brian.

 A heartfelt thank you for doing what you do!

Hello, Brian;

I just wanted to let you know that my novel The Hunger Winter is now available through the publisher Wipfandstock.com (here) and Chapters/Indigo (here).

This is the story of two teenage sisters in the Netherlands who are forced to learn to collaborate during the famine and the final year of WWII. Suitable for adult readers and mature YA, the book offers book club and further research resources.

Thanks for past courses and workshops. Will keep an eye on future offerings.

Hi, Brian.

Just thought I’d share my news. I have a picture book coming out with Owl’s Nest Publishers in 2026. It’s a middle grade novel in verse titled Swimming with Dolphins.

Suzanne Purvis

Note: Owl’s Nest Publishers is a new independent publisher specializing in Middle Grade and YA. It’s also reprinting classics that in the public domain – which hopefully works out as a good revenue stream for them. See more about Owl’s Nest here.

 

See all my upcoming weekly writing classes, one-day workshops, and four-day  retreats here. ~Brian
