Well, I'm sitting at my desk waiting for a layer of matte medium to dry, so I thought I'd write about my experience this weekend at the New England Society of Children's Book Writers & Illustrators conference. It was…magical!
It was my first conference ever, and my goal was to absorb as much as I could since I could only be there for one day. I listened intently to keynotes by Dan Santat and Jo Knowles, attended workshops and panels, and had a portfolio critique. The best part by far though was meeting other writers and illustrators and hearing everyone's story. It can be difficult just working from home and never knowing that other people go through the exact same struggles & successes. So if I met you last Saturday…thank you!
I can't wait to go back next year and hopefully enter the portfolio showcase, and be able to stay longer than one day. For now…back to work!
