Hi everyone,
I’m off to the Society of Children’s Book Writer’s and Illustrator’s Summer Conference tomorrow. I’ll have a full report when I return Tuesday.
In the meantime, Jennifer Young, a fellow children’s author and my critique partner, is hosting me on her blog today. Jennifer’s book, Poison Apple Pie, recently was published by Meegenius. In the post, I talk about my nonfiction writing process.
Have a wonderful weekend and don’t forget to tune in for Curiosity’s landing Sunday night.

That’s so exciting!!! I hope you enjoy your time tomorrow. Thanks for sharing your awesome answers on my blog today!
Thanks for having me, Jennifer.
I look forward to hearing about the conference…do they have it every year in L.A.? Have a great time!
Hi Jackie. SCBWI has two national conferences: one in NYC in the winter and one in LA in the summer. There are also lots of regional/local chapters that host events throughout the year. It’s a wonderful, supportive group.
Have fun! Can’t wait to read about it!
