Registration for SCBWI LA Is Open...


Today is the first day to register for the 37th Annual SCBWI Summer Conference in L.A.! So beat the crowd and click over to www.scbwi.org to sign up. You can also check out the faculty and read about the sessions. And guess who's presenting? It's your favorite CWIM editor! (Finally, I won't have to crash the after party.)

(Speaking of parties, the theme for the annual Saturday poolside is Paint the Town Red. I've got to start planning my outfit.)
