Program Description
A look inside the life and career of award-winning author and mom Selene Castrovilla. Selene explains how she always knew she was a writer from when she held a pencil -- and she ultimately followed her passion to publish eighteen books. She discusses the steps she took to become a writer and how she got her first book published. She also reveals her writing process, including how she gets her ideas. She'll talk about her writing day, how she continues to publish books, why she chooses certain topics, and how the publishing industry works: from idea to printed book. Audiences will walk away with a firm concept of how to pursue a career in writing -- or even just write a book for fun. They will be inspired by Selene's passion for her work. They will realize that authors are regular people who had a dream -- and then followed through with it. *Program is tailored to audience age.
