I have not been to an SCBWI conference in two years. That is what happens when you have twins. But, this weekend, I will be attending the NJ SCBWI conference. Why trek from DC to NJ, you ask? My pal, Leeza, is one reason, an awesome line up is another. Getting a book deal was a big factor. I felt I had reached the limit as far as pre-publishing conference info. But, now, NOW I get to learn what to do after you are published. I’m getting excited and a little nervous. So far, postcards have been designed and delivered, portfolio is almost ready ( that is a snippet of the final piece up there) and outfits have been pretty much decided on. I just need to choose which piece to enter for the contest (comments welcome) and make a few color copies. Yay!
