Poem In My Pocket Day, went really well. The children either wrote or brought a poem to read. We had a lot of fun sharing our poems. I’m going to find a way to put these poems together on my website or make them available to print…

Until then…

My Favorite Conference Session

I learned a lot from the first conference keynote speaker Bruce Hale. I am setting new writing goals to help me refocus.

I'll write like my hair is on fire and meditate to keep focus.

Nothing like local success stories:

Local author Bonny Becker was voted by her peers.

Day 2 Of The Conference

4/22/2012

A great day two of the conference, I received a positive critique for a picture book, that I’d written in verse. I have some writing I need to tighten up but the potential is there.

I enjoyed another day of some good news for local authors and great presentations. I’ll post later about some of the highlights that were blogged for the conference.

Today, I spent the day in Redmond at the Western Washington SCBWI (Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators) Annual Conference. I’ll be there tomorrow too. I received a lot of information and inspiration. I need some time to soak it all in. So I’ll just end with that for now…
