Writers Day 2024 is my favorite SCBWI annual event as it’s held at the Skirball (therefore sentimental–when my teen was a toddler I took him to the museum’s Noah’s Ark exhibit, often). Lunch is included with the price and is not only reliably delicious, but served on an outdoor patio with a view of indigenous California nature. Right on.

A plethora of books are for sale, keynotes and breakout sessions are stellar–but go, experience it for yourself. And if you see me careening about (I am volunteering again this year), shout: PB! and I’ll freeze, focus and be so glad to greet you.

I don’t know if agent-pitch slots are still available. If so? Sign up.

Yours in memorizing loglines,

PB
