Fall Highlighter Journal

With schools in full swing and winter holidays around the corner, the Fall 2023 issue of Highlighter on the theme "Emotions" guides us on how to channel our characters' (and our own) emotions into our kidlit work. Dagmar Smith's cover illustration of friends running down a blustery autumn hillside ushers us to articles on evoking authentic emotions in our writing, leveraging emotional arcs to heighten the reading experience, and using composition, shape design, and color to capture emotion in illustrations. With plenty of craft resources and information on upcoming events, there is much to explore!
