Attaining the success of J.K. Rowling is a great feat! To recreate it, today's writer needs a combination of skills. You’ll learn about the little-known niches in children/YA publishing most writers miss and how to evade rejection by avoiding critical errors in your first pages and first chapters.

Eileen Robinson has been in children's publishing for more than ten years (including executive editor at Scholastic and editorial manager at Harcourt) with a focus on mentoring and publishing newcomers. Working with both published and unpublished authors, agents and publishing houses, Eileen created F1rstPages.com where she gives writers the tools they need to get published. In addition, Eileen has been an editorial consultant to Wisdom Publications, National Geographic, Santillana USA and others.
