Wordless Wednesday: SCBWI Conference Photos–A Unique Perspective

At the end of the Midsouth SCBWI conference, I realized I hadn't taken any photos for Wordless Wednesday, so I snapped some quick ones.

The hotel had beautiful carpeting...


and ceilings.



The chairs were also interesting.




The Hilton provided complimentary coffee and ice water.

You expect to see pictures of famous writers, editors, and agents from a writer's conference? Remember, this is a humor blog!

Oh, okay. Here is a homemade movie of the gifted and talented Dan Yaccarino and me.




Don't you hate it when your camera takes a movie instead of a still photo?

Willa's Wild Life is an even better film than the one above.

Seriously, I had a great time at the conference and got a lot more out of it than these goofy snapshots that are good for messing with my readers. Hopefully, I even met someone who will want to take a chance on my humor.

As someone who often goes to conferences, I love these pictures because they are so accurate about the feel of them.

It was almost like seeing the conference through the eyes of somebody with ADD....carpet... ceiling... chair... empty glass... :)

Interesting pics...but what's SCBWI?

I missed you last weekend. I would have loved your critique too. Congrats on getting going on something new. New WIPs are exciting. I loved "Leaving Gees Bend!" If Irene's second book is as good as her first, she should do well.

That would be me.

Nope. I write MG (middle grade) and YA (young adult) novels. Thanks for asking.
