When we invited Stephen Mooser and Lin Oliver, the founders of SCBWI, to our regional conference- we knew we wanted to do something special to honor them. You may remember a top secret project I mentioned back in February. Between conference going and conference planning Joni Sensel, Laurie Thompson and I were making covert visits to coerce a few of our favorite kid lit pros to act silly in front of a camera. All for the love of Lin and Steve!
Everyone was so gracious and helpful. A few clips didn’t make it onto the final video due to technical difficulties from my oafish video editing skills. Many apologies, and a great big THANK YOU to everyone who helped.
*Just a note- The alternative identities of publishing professionals portrayed here in no way reflects what they wish to see in manuscript submissions, so don’t get any crazy ideas.
There is a conference photo pool on flickr here. Add pictures if you have any, please!
