For me, one of the biggest draws is the inclusion of plenty of hands-on time for practicing new and improved skills, complete with immediate feedback.

Like many other writing conferences and book festivals, Write2Ignite made the decision to go virtual, allowing authors from anywhere to participate. With this new direction, they’ve decided to present one-day Master Classes—focused classes taught by master authors and teachers designed to help writers who want to become masters at writing for children and young adults.
One thing hasn’t changed: Write2Ignite’s focus and foundation.
Our focus is still on those who write for youth.
Our foundation is still Christ.
About the Master
I have admired Joyce and her writing for many years. Her historical fiction novels for middle grades are well written and meticulously researched.
Now, allow me to introduce you!
Joyce Moyer Hostetter lives right where many of her characters do—in rural North Carolina. She’s always on the lookout—hoping to bump into them. In the absence of a time machine that would take her to the 1940s, she immerses herself in research to discover what their world was like. Her book, BLUE won the International Reading Association Award, The NC Juvenile Literature Award and Parent’s Choice Silver Honor. It is used widely in North Carolina schools. AIM is a prequel to BLUE. COMFORT is a sequel, and DRIVE is an Okra Pick. HEALING WATER, set in Hawaii’s leprosy settlement is available via e-book.
Head to her website for trailers for her books, curriculum guides for parents and teachers and much more. You can also read my review of Blue and my review of Comfort on Goodreads.
