Richard Jesse Watson presenting in Spokane this weekend


Here's a great reason for a road trip.

Local author/illustrator Richard Jesse Watson presents this Saturday, September 12, at the Washington and Idaho SCBWI Regional Conference.

You can learn more about him at his blog, his website, and through the books he's created.

Other presenters include Lisa Yoskowitz, Editor at Dutton Children's Books; Terry Trueman, young adult novelist; and Judy Gregerson, middle grade novelist.

Beginnings, middles, endings: This conference offers open critique sessions to those who did not send manuscripts in advance. Illustrators will also have the opportunity to work on character sketches with Richard's guidance. If anyone is interested in heading over to Spokane for the weekend, last-minute registration is available at the door on Saturday morning. For conference details: visit their website, or contact Deby Fredericks at (509) 482-5288.
