For every general market book written by Carolyn Bennett Fraiser, there is a companion book in the educational market. Was this an accident, or God’s plan? In this episode, I sit down with Carolyn to discuss what the educational market is, and how to break into it. From helpful resources like Evelyn Christensen’s list of educational publishing houses, to the Writing Barn, to the lessons Carolyn has learned along the way, you have to listen to this episode. We even get to talk a little bit about homesteading! If you want a chance to win “21 Days of Grace” be sure to send us an email at info.Write2Ignite@gmail.com orcomment on this blog post.

If anyone was qualified to write stories for children, it would be Laura Sassi. She has worn many hats through the years: a mother, a homeschooler, a teacher, and a children’s ministry director. She also wore a special hat for our podcast episode! With over ten books to her name, Laura’s newest picture book, Pumpkin Day for Boo and Belle (with a special giveaway below) is now available.

In this episode, Laura offers practical advice on the importance of finding an agent, how to make sure a writing opportunity isn’t a scam, and what author events mean to both the author and children. But most of all, it is impossible to listen to this episode without smiling. Just like Laura’s writing, she is a delight.
