Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about the SCBWI Summer Conference

[edithspage]

Blue with envy that you didn't get to attend SCBWI's summer conference? Don't be! SCBWI's Team Blog made up of the wonderful Lee Wind, Paula Yoo, Alice Pope, Jolie Stekly, Jaime Temairik and Suzanne Young has done an incredible job covering the conference. And if you want that personal touch from yours truly, you can watch a video of me babbling

Ditto!

Yes! I was in Kathleen's session, too. I liked that bit about the spark. I think too often I find myself rummaging outside of the initial story I want to tell--remembering the spark pulls me back inside of it. Also, I liked what she said about critique, the whole B-C-D thing.

Happy inspiration!

Oh, I loved that critique advice too. Too many critiquers I know offer too much plot advice. I'm like, just tell me if it's working or not, and I'll decide how to fix it. ;)

Her class was great, wasn't it? Ellen's and Ingrid's were also 2 of my favorites.

It's funny--I was just perusing through your site when I saw your comment on my blog.

It was great meeting you as well, and here's to many more meetings in the future!

This was one of my favorite workshops as well! :D

Yay! I'm feeling sad it's over. ;)

The video interview of you is fantastic! I'm so jealous...Skin Hunger is one of my favorite novels.

I really loved it too! Thanks for recommending it at our retreat. ;)

YES!

I AM blue with envy! And there's my friend Kathleen Duey! Loving the books! Looking forward to reading Sacred Scars very soon.
One of these years I'm coming out to see you for the summer conf. I think, Edith. Until then -- are you coming to NC in Sept. to join us?
