Come and chat with your fellow kidlit creators. We want to celebrate your wins from 2024 and talk about goals for 2025. We can chat about the upcoming Winter Conference, and ideas for programming for next year. Is there an agent, editor, creator, art director that you want to hear from? Our new chapter Illustrator Coordinator, Mirka Hokkanen, will be hosting.
