This weekend is the SCBWI Summer Spectacular conference, usually a weeklong gathering of writers and illustrators in California. This year, it’s all virtual, but that means I can actually attend!
The keynotes and panels will be recorded, so I can go back and watch any that I miss for the whole month of August. Not that I want to miss any! It’s a virtual smorgasboard of amazing, talented people dedicated to creating books for kids:
- Philip Pullman
- Judy Blume
- Kwame Alexander
- Raul the Third
- Jacqueline Woodson
- Jane Yolen
- Jason Reynolds
- Grace Lin
- Jeff Kinney
- …plus lots more, including editors and agents
I’m looking forward to gleaning inspiration and ideas from this supportive community. And then checking out the virtual San Diego ComicCon@home!
