Summer Camp!
I've never been to a sleep-over summer camp. Last year I taught at the Vancouver Public Library's Canadian Summer Writing Camp, but that doesn't count, because we still went home at the end of the day.
Things are about to change.
On Monday, I shall hie myself off to Abbottsford to teach (and sleep over!) at the Creative Writing for Children (CWC) Summer Camp 2007. Three days of writing stories, learning new skills and making great friends. I'll bring my camera and get a few shots of some of the action to share. I'm also bringing my computer -- time to take another shot at DEADLINE.
One of the CWC teachers this year is James McCann. James' new book PYRE has just come out and he and I will be sharing a book launch sometime soon. Stay tuned for details!~kc, wondering if there is such a thing as marshmallow-free s'mores...

Oh man, I would love to get involved with something like that. I have been considering trying to set up something where I teach maybe highschool students what little I know about writing once a week or something.
I wouldn't charge anything (unless there were costs I had to incur), I just think you learn so much by teaching. Also I have this dreadful fear of public speaking it would help me work on.
