LA-Bound!

Out and About

I’m off and flyin’ to the 38th Annual SCBWI Conference - 4 days (count ’em!) of non-stop meeting, greeting, learning and laughing - oh, and dancing, too, beneath LA’s Blue Moon, all in the service of creating children’s books.

My (too-big-to-fit-in-the-overhead-compartment?) suitcase bulges with the manuscripts I’ll be critiquing, transparencies for my Saturday “Keeping The Writer’s Dream Alive 24/7” Workshop, and one very stylish 40’s navy blue organza chapeau I plan to don for Saturday night’s dancing.

But guess what?

YOU can attend the 38th Annual SCBWI Conference too!

Happy Conference-goin’, in Real and/or Virtual Space!
