Jody Ashton (from Rochester, Washington) is the Gifted Teacher at Grand Mound Elementary and in charge of their annual Young Authors’ Conference. She’s looking for authors and/or illustrators and storytellers to come be presenters at the conference in March 2012. The audience is kindergarten to fifth grade. Her budget is very small but can pay you something for the half day conference.
