Wow. What an amazing conference. The SCBWI Florida Mid-Year Conference at the Walt Disney World Yacht Club, Orlando, was an amalgam of fabulous new material, collegiality and interesting people.
I attended the Picture Book Intensive lead by Andrea Davis Pinkney, a New York Times best-selling and award-winning author and editor at Scholastic, Inc. and by Sylvie Frank, associate editor at Holiday House. Both women did a marvelous job discussing the intricacies of picture book writing and marketing.
It was my pleasure to conduct the all-day workshop on non-fiction with Deb Noyes Wayshak, editor-at-large at Candlewick Press.
I want to thank those who attended our workshop. It was so lovely to work with you.
Deb and I wish you well in your pursuit of fair use and thorough research in the writing fun, exciting and worthy non-fiction.
All of my expectations were fulfilled. New friends were met. New information and ideas were learned. What an august group. Being an author rocks!

Hi Nancy,
ReplyDeleteI'm very glad you had a wonderful time at the Florida Mid-Year SCBWI Conference. Sorry I couldn't be there to meet you.
I'm so sorry, too, Barbara. Maybe Miami?
