Still wondering what your story could be about? Still worried that you’re maybe not really a writer? Lilla has tons of experience of working with artists and other creative people, and she designed this course especially to teach artists and illustrators how to write, beta testing it on her artists before rolling it out to you, our wonderful students.
Katie Vernon, a Make Art That Sells student who is now represented by Lilla, wrote this story while beta testing My Kid Book Pitch, and it has now been published by Running Press. Now you can take the very same course (and maybe catch Lilla’s eye and get representation too!).
Lilla has tons of tips and tricks that will help you to tap into your magical imagination and uncover the story that you always wanted to tell, including her Magic Cards, her Write a Story Recipe, her Blobby Storyboard worksheet, and tons more. Plus you’ll be working with a huge community of creative people from all over the world to cheer you on!
