My picture book critique buddy and good friend Teresa Robeson has signed with an agent: Ella Kennen of the Corvisiero Agency. She is multitalented: she writes picture books, middle grade, YA, short stories, and illustrates (not to mention homeschools, paints, knits, gardens, cans food, etc.). She tells us about The Call and how she ended up here.
Tell us
about your writing journey. How long have you been writing, and what sorts of
stories do you write?
I’ve enjoyed writing ever since I learned English after
moving to Canada in third grade, but I didn’t think about writing
professionally until 1990 when I took my first course from the Institute of Children’s Literature. I decided to take the course because kid lit, along with
science fiction, was one of my first loves. Within a year of completing the class,
I joined SCBWI and sold my first short story to Ladybug Magazine and my first
article to Outdoor Indiana.
