SCBWI

Just back from the Spring Oregon SCBWI conference. After 10 years of being a member of the Society of Children's Books Writers and Illustrators, I still feel a bit like a newbie.  I still get that nervous fluttery feeling when I meet an editor or a well-known author at a conference.  I still go to workshops and get those "Oh! yes!  That will help me," moments.  But now, I also get to see old friends, congratulate them on their successes and commisserate with them over the trials of this profession. I cannot imagine having persevered without the support of this group.
Thanks!!!!!
