We’re in L.A. and it’s awesome. Meeting people, seeing friends, relaxing, eating, drinking, workshopping- and it’s all about writing kid lit! It’s fantastic.
I got the chance to meet Alice Pope on Thursday, she who brings us the invaluable Children’s Writer’s & Illustrator’s market. Last night around 1ish Alice said she needed to blog some more before sleeping. I think it was a while before Alice slept.
Laurie Thompson, my roommate and fellow SCBWI WWA-er had a rave manuscript consultation yesterday. She was, in fact, nominated for the Sue Alexander Award. Congratulations, Laurie!!
Back to the conference!

Hope you’re having fun at the conference. I’m a fellow SCBWI member and was at the summer conference in LA last year but couldn’t make it this year. Very disappointing, but oh well. I look forward to reading about your observations from this year’s event.
