Esther Hershenhorn: Writing for Children

Five Nights, Five Full Workshop Days, Full Room & Board

A manuscript retreat for serious children’s book writers who are ready for their next draft to really count. For over a decade, Esther Hershenhorn has carried forward Barbara Seuling’s famed Vermont Manuscript Workshop, creating a proving ground for picture book and children’s authors in the Green Mountains. 

Over five immersive days, a small group of up to six writers will enjoy uninterrupted writing time in and around Landgrove, daily one-on-one coaching with Esther, and evening read-aloud sessions to hear how their work lands. Shared meals spark “Food-for-Thought” conversations, with optional bookshop and gallery outings to refill your creative well.
