WELCOME TO NF FEST!
 
Organized by the Nonfiction Ninjas, NF Fest is a month-long crash course in writing nonfiction for children. Learn the craft from 20+ authors and illustrators through daily posts that will get you researching and writing in small steps. It's all free!

Please join our NF Fest Facebook community at https://www.facebook.com/groups/NFFest. This community answers questions, shares resources and good news, and has interesting discussions. It is active every month, not just during NF Fest. Come join us there!

NF Fest began with Pat Miller who
 dedicated her life to children, books, and learning. And what she learned she always shared. In 2015, she created the first two-day NF conference called Nonfiction for New Folks and ran it single-handedly for three years. And when Pat saw the need for a more comprehensive resource online, she devised the NF Fest to celebrate the art and craft of true stories for children. What a gift!

The Ninjas got their start when authors Pat Miller and Christine Liu-Perkins decided to create their own personal workshop where select writers would teach and learn the art of writing nonfiction for children. We all jumped at the chance to be part of this unique opportunity. Who wouldn't want a weekend away at the Writing Barn? The connection was instantaneous. We didn't want the conversation to end, so we became the Nonfiction Ninjas.
