Conferences are a great way to not only meet people with the same writing interests as you, but to also expand your craft and learn from writers who have been out there. Depending on the conference, you can even participate in critiques, get books autographed and sign up for organizations you didn't know about but interest you. Here are a list of organizations that host conferences.
Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators
Check out the events section as well as regional chapters. Regional chapters will sometimes host their own conferences outside of SCBWI proper. |
