The conference is always wonderful and invigorating. In case those out there dont know SCBWI - it's the Society of Children's Books Writers and Illustrators, a really wonderful group (and quite large) dedicated to writing all types of children's books. So many wonderful professionals assist others just starting out to those who have been writing for a while.
If you like to write for children, you probably already know this organization but for those who don't, I recommend joining. It provides a great learning and networking opportunity for those of us who tend to keep our heads down and working. I love talking to agents, editors, and illustrators just to learn something new on the craft.
Not just that though. SCBWI provides wonderful information on the book market, new technologies, and plenty of tips and tricks on the craft. The society also provides awards and grants to all levels of writers. The enthusiasm is contagious!
