How To Write A Rebus

Earlier this year, the SCBWI Regional Advisor for Missouri, Sue Bradford Edwards, asked if I’d write an article for the region’s newsletter on how to write a rebus.  I’d recently had three accepted for publication by Clubhouse Jr..  I was happy to. 

Don’t know what a rebus is?  Then this is the perfect time to learn!  Here’s a link to the region’s website and newsletter.

Enjoy!

    Thanks, Ruth. By the way, I loved your article, "If Memory Serves," in Writing for Children's Magazines. Here's a link for those who haven't seen it yet. http://evelynchristensen.com/magsArticle12-6-RS.html

    Rebuses are nut I have yet to crack, but you certainly have a gift for them, Jody. Thanks for sharing the link to the article with us. Your insights are thoughtful and well-written. I think I may try my hand at a rebus or two this summer. Happy writing!

    And Ruth, I remember reading the article of yours that Jody mentions. Nice job with that, as well!
