Dear friends,
Join us on our face-to-face meet-ups in Brussels, Amsterdam and Luxembourg this June! Feel free to share your events ideas and to volunteer spontaneously. We look forward to meeting you.
What a wonderful year we’ve had with so many guest speakers about writing, illustrating and translating… Among them, Paddy Donnelly, author and illustrator, Sara Sargent – Senior Executive Editor at Random House Children’s Books, Joy Bean – Editorial Director at Arctis Books, Adria Goetz – senior agent at KT Literary, Nadine Pinede - poet, author, editor, and educator, along with two creative retreats, a new book club for Middle Grade novels, illustrators huddles and many community building and craft honing moments!
We learnt tons with you and would encourage you to pop in as often as you can, as SCBWI gives you back as much as you put in. Life comes first of course, yet the more we meet up and exchange, the more we grow our craft and friendships.
If you know fun prompting exercises that you found valuable, please contact me at benelux-ra@scbwi.org. We could organise new artists’ dates. It’s always a lot of fun to create and learn new tricks together.
We all work as volunteers and put our heart and souls into these events. We hope you enjoyed them. Feel free to share your event ideas and to volunteer on a particular project close to your heart.
Sending you all my wishes for a wonderful summer!
See you in September,
Fanély
