National Conference...Woo-Hoo! |
|
As all of you know, out there in the kidlitsoshere—you know who you are, the millions reading this blog—beginning this Friday is the SCBWI (Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators) national conference and I'll be commuting to Los Angeles from my home in Blah Blah...that's code for...Oops!...can't say...trying to keep the paparazzi down to a bare minimum. I'm looking forward to the conference. A couple of not-to-be-missed sessions will be given by Susan Patron , this years Newbery Medal winner, also Printz Award winner, John Green . Other workshops I plan to attend will be Mary Hershey's session on humor, and fellow chapter book writer Bruce Hale's session on promotion. For everything else I'll be going with the flow and shooting from the hip.
In between there will be plenty of time to shmooze, hang out, and drown our literary rejection sorrows. As they say, misery loves company. Greg

“Great presentation by Greg Trine! Children and adults were fascinated by his unique journey of becoming an author...Greg's entertaining yet realistic account of becoming an author inspired all of us to read and write just for the sheer joy of it!” Nancy Thorne 6th grade teacher, Hawthorne Elementary School
