Last weekend I attended my very first writers conference and it was fantastic! The SCBWI Mid-Atlantic conference was a mix of authors and illustrators and I was lucky enough to win a grant to participate. The intensive with a literary agent and a professional critique was included and was truly invaluable. I couldn't take notes fast enough!

I left energized, grateful and incredibly glad that I attended.

I am thrilled to be a part of such a nurturing group and look forward to getting more involved.
