Today I worked on putting together a special dinner to follow the June conference at 6:00pm in Princeton, NJ. Last year we included this in the silent auction, but this year I thought it would be nice to put out the opportunity to everyone attending.
Right now we have the following faculty members coming to the dinner.
REGINA GRIFFIN, Senior Editor Egmont USA
TRACEY ADAMS, Owner and Agent, Adams Literary
CAROLYN YODER, Editor, Calkins Creek Books; Senior Editor, History, HIGHLIGHTS
REBECCA FRAZER, Editor, Sourcebooks Jabberwocky
HEATHER ALEXANDER, Assistant Editor, Dial BFYR
KATE SULLIVAN, Assistant Editor, Little, Brown and Co.
SCOTT TREIMEL, Agent, Scott Treimel Literary Agency
STEPHEN BARBARA, Agent, Foundry Literary + Media
JILL CORCORAN, Agent, Herman Agency
SIMONE KAPLAN, Owner Picture Book People
PATRICK COLLINS, Creative Director Henry Holt
DAVID L HARRISON, Keynote speaker, author of 80 books
KRISTIN VENUTI, Author Leaving the Bellweather (E.B. White Read Aloud Award Shortlist)
Cost to attend is $100 per person. Dinner includes appetizers, your choice of dinner, dessert, wine, coffee and tea.
This dinner is limited to the first 24 people to sign up. Please contact me if you would like to attend.

Nanci,
I’m glad you can make it. That will give us some additional time to talk. The conference flies by, so dinner when it is over will be great.
