Former Santa Barbara poet laureate David Starkey invited me on his SBTV show, The Creative Community, and we had a great conversation about my picture books, poetry, and screenplays. Check out the half-hour episode here.
From the official blurb: "Join author and poet Julie Dillemuth as she shares her insights into the challenges of writing picture books and the importance of spatial thinking skills. Discover the connection between poetry and children's books, and learn about Julie's experience with screenwriting and adaptations. Get advice for aspiring writers, including taking classes and utilizing available resources. Find out how to enjoy the writing process even when it's challenging, and be inspired to be tenacious and express yourself."
The half-hour went by very fast-- we could easily have talked for twice that long! I am honored to have been a guest on this long-running show, and I appreciate that David showcases artists in our Santa Barbara community.
