The Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators Conference

Can you hear the glee in my typing? I just signed up for the annual summer conference of the SCBWI—the most difficult acronym in the world to say—in August! And, perhaps more exciting, my very good friend, muse, and all-around fabulous guy Davis Wakefield will be coming from London to join me. He’s working on a brilliant YA sci-fi that will blow the socks off of the editors at the conference.

The SCBWI knows how to put on a conference; I noticed they’ve even built yoga classes in t o the schedule! Unfortunately these overlap with prime cocktail time, and I, for one, have my priorities straight. Straight up.

OMG, Christy!

So glad you'll be joining us at the conference this year! Any chance you can talk Jennie into coming?

It will be tons of fun, and, yeah, I don't think anybody really attends the yoga class...at least not without a glass of wine in hand. I always have good intentions of exercising, but once I get there working out is pretty much limited to walking out to the pool and lifting a few towels.

See you soon!
