| Youth Literature Days in Regional WA (2) |
Fremantle Children's Literature Centre |
Our first major objective is to nurture consistently, over a period of three years, several groups of highly motivated and talented young writers. By working four times a year with some of Australia's top creators of youth literature they will come to realise that writers are a unique breed, in that they are all wonderfully different and that each has a different process they undergo to achieve their successful publication lists. Our second major objective is to nurture our wonderful authors of youth literature by contracting them to work in a programme that is challenging, inspiring and fulfilling. We want these Youth Literature Days to be ones in their diary that they are excited by and anticipate with relish. |
