Ever wonder what it’s like to be a children’s author? GritLIT joins Telling Tales in bringing authors Marie-Louise Gay, Sarah Raughley, David A. Robertson, and Kevin Sylvester together for a chat.

Moderated by soon-to-be-published author, Jessica Rose of GritLIT, this panel of creatives – all successful authors working in the Canadian children’s lit space, all in different places in their careers – will be invited to reflect on how the industry is shifting, where they see it moving, and give advice to writers wanting to break into this space.
