Just back from a terrific writers' weekend in Madison WI with 6 other writers and a New York editor for Putnam children's books - lots of book talk, questions and answers about the 'real' side of the book business. Everyone has read and critiques each writer's submissions for this weekend - always a positive experience but of course daunting when you think you've 'got it right' and the others don't quite get it, or outright disagree with what your oh-so-independent characters do! It's difficult to be out here in the boonies as Wisconsin writers; great to have New York come to us.
Now to get back to work and 'fix' that story!
