Serious about improving your craft? SCBWI's regional events provide opportunities for professional growth and help you connect with a supportive, creative community.
THIS EVENT IS NOW FULL. We hope you will join us for our annual spring conference on March 28 and 29th, 2025, in beautiful Decatur, Georgia. Gather with fellow writers, illustrators, translators, agents, editors, and other children's book publishing professionals for a day of craft, networking, professional development, and community. Make new connections, meet new friends, learn and explore, and refine your creative and business skills to move your kidlit career forward. With optional pre-conference intensives offered on Friday afternoon, March 28, and a free kidlit creators' social and trivia night event that evening, this will be a weekend to remember! Early Bird pricing ends February 6.
Christyne Morrell, contracts attorney and kidlit author, will walk us through some common provisions in agency and publishing contracts, provide examples of red flags to avoid, and reveal the legal provision that almost ended her writing career. ***A recording will be available for 31 days following the event.
