Introducing the New Way to Learn Writing.
You can spend years chasing information and instruction about writing a Picture Book- much of it outdated or just plain wrong – or you can start writing your book right now. Even if you’re an absolute beginner!
The WriteForKids Blueprint System is an entirely new online approach to writing and revising excellent manuscripts. Each Blueprint takes a particular category of book and breaks the process of writing and revising it into tiny steps.
Each step then features a video with an expert instructor describing this piece of the writing puzzle, offering great advice and giving instructions about using the fillable PDF form for that step. Follow along and – before you know it – you’ll have a professional, polished manuscript ready to submit and be illustrated.
And, because this is a “write while you learn” system, you’ll become a better and stronger writer every time you go through the Blueprint!

WriteForKids Blueprints
You do not know how long I have been waiting for this.
With my WriteForKids Blueprint I am confident that I will be able to finish my book.
I am literally in tears and can barely see the keyboard. Thanks and love to you all.
MARK SIMPSON
I can’t tell you how much I love my affordable, easy to use Blueprint.
Its methodical, take-your-time approach was just what I needed to get my manuscript moving again.
Thank you guys so much for putting this program together!

I love my Blueprint!
It keeps me on task and provides inspiration.
The instructors are generous, practical and knowledgeable.
Blueprints are an essential tool in my quest to become a published author.
LOU ANN GURNEY
I truly feel like I have a mentor helping me take an idea, get it on paper, and then make it shine.
Instead of waking up at 5 am and willing my mind to think of something to write, I had a short Blueprints video and exercise waiting to warm up my brain and get the creativity flowing.
Best of all, the exercises were useful. Not ‘practice writing’ just for practice’s sake, but practice for writing my book. I was working toward my finished manuscript, but in manageable pieces.
After two weeks, I began looking forward to getting up early to write. After two months, I had a new first draft—one that I read through without cringing!
Now I’m into the editing stage, and I have a guide through that process as well. They say writing is rewriting, and I’m so glad that WriteForKids Blueprints walks me through revising my manuscript as well.
Thanks so much for creating WriteForKids Blueprints! They’re an incredible resource.
CHRISTY CHU
My Blueprint was a God-send for me.
I’m published! What a joy and journey…and I could not have done it without the help of your Blueprint road map to guide me, literally, step by step!
There were the nights I went to bed with writer’s block, wondering what do I do now or where does the storyline go from here! Then, I would wake up with the obvious solution. ‘Hey, wait a minute! Why am I struggling so hard? I have my Blueprint to help me with my next step on what I need to write or where I need to go in this story!’
By answering a few simple questions embedded in my story, the Blueprint freed my brain cramps and sent me on my way to whole new chapters!
My book is doing remarkably well and I’m flattered to be nominated for several children’s book awards thanks to many new friends and fans!
Much credit goes to you and your Blueprint because without it, I do not know whether I would have even finished the book, let alone published it, in both soft and hardcovers and now in Kindle edition.
Thank you guys for all your hard work to help make me a successful children’s book author!
