conference

This coming Saturday, January 9th, I will be attending my first writing conference since beginning my writing. It is the New York: West/Central Upstate Regional conference for SCBWI (Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators). I am pretty excited. I will be hearing a few good speakers and be participating in the breakout session called First Pages. Randi Rivers (Editor at Charlesbridge) will be hosting this session and there is a chance the first page of one of my works in progress will get read - this is a very popular session so there is no guarantee.
