Three-Part Storytelling Workshop with Cindy Baldwin

A workshop with <em>No Matter the Distance</em> author Cindy Baldwin! Space is limited. Registration is required. <em>This workshop is intended for children grades 5-8. Children ages 10 and over may attend without a caregiver.</em> In this writing workshop, author Cindy Baldwin will teach students how to use the three parts of a story (beginning, middle, and end) to create strong, exciting stories of their own - based on the same three-act structure that grown-up authors study! After she has shared the secret things every beginning, middle, and end need, she will work with participants to put principles into practice and build a collaborative story. Part of the workshop will also be allotted for students to begin their own three-part stories, including a few minutes at the end for any students who wish to share what they?ve written. Cindy Baldwin is the author of <em>No Matter the Distance</em>, a Junior Library Guild selection and this year?s A Novel Idea Youth Edition selection. She has also written the critically acclaimed novels <em>Where the Watermelons Grow</em> (an Oregon Spirit Book Award Honor, Indies Introduce title, and Indie Next selection), <em>Beginners Welcome</em>, and <em>The Stars of Whistling Ridge</em>. She lives just outside Portland, Oregon, with her husband and daughter. *Elsa* *Cr* *yani* *ani*
