Steal This: Using Cultural References for Writers and Illustrators with the amazing Sharismar Rodriguez & Dr. Mira Reisberg

Are you a lifelong learner always looking to improve your craft or inspire new ideas? Then check out our fabulous 
Steal This! Using Cultural References For Writers & Illustrators masterclass with the truly brilliant Sharismar Rodriguez and Dr. Mira Reisberg assisted by Melissa Stoller.
​Just click here or the pic below to purchase for only $27.00 for a limited time!
This masterclass will help you by sharing the secrets of children's book writers and illustrators who have learned from classic literature, mythology, fine art, current events, and pop culture, in order to write or illustrate their own contemporary children's books that engage editors, art directors, and agents (oh, and of course... children, teachers, and parents).
  • Infusing cultural references enables creatives to level up their work whether these references are historic or hip and happening now!
  • If you are stuck for a subject learn about these subjects and how you might adapt them for yourself into something completely fresh and original with broader resonance
  • This expansive masterclass will teach you things you didn't even realize you needed to know. 

    Can you imagine JK Rowlings being so popular if she hadn't wholeheartedly stolen from mythology or Rick Riordan for that matter? Learn what cultural references you might want to weave into your writing or illustration

Just Listen to What Our Previous Attendees Have to Say About the Class:

"Your webinars are always spot on, Mira! You and your team give so much value, whether it is a free webinar or one of your incredible classes. I speak from experience because I've attended many of these webinars and have taken your Illustrating Children's Books course. You are a treasure!" -- Vivian Kirkfield, Author & CBA Graduate

"I really enjoyed this webinar! I truly look forward to working and learning with many of you in the course! As I have said, I am a writer, not an illustrator, but I am going in with an open mind, and I know that everything I learn will definitely help inform my picture book writing! See you all soon!" - -Melissa Stoller, Author & CBA Graduate 

"Oh wow!! This was our first ever webinar and we were just blown away!! Thank you so much for an amazing and inspiring presentation - we were bubbling over with ideas and insights yesterday.
