Back to School with Jolie Stekly!

September is one of the most creative months. Kids go back to school and allow work from home parents to get back to peaceful routines (cough cough), we PNWers find ourselves spending more time indoors, and paper and pens are on sale everywhere. As former kids, we remember that start-of-the-new-school-year excitement and all of the possibilities returning to the classroom can bring.

Those days don't have to be over! Jolie Stekly (former RA, SCBWI Member of the Year, and all around dynamo) will be offering a free information meeting to learn about UW's Certificate in Writing program. Join Jolie on September 18th, 6-7, at University Bookstore to learn more about the program that so many of our members have found beneficial.

YA novel course at UW

Karen Finneyfrock, author of the YA novel THE SWEET REVENGE OF CELIA DOOR, is the instructor for this year's UW certificate course in YA fiction.

If that doesn't already make your heart swell with longing, then hear this: She's trying to rope more folks into the class!

It's a year-long commitment, beginning SEPTEMBER 17. Held each Thursday. What are you waiting for, people? Opportunity knocks!
