#1: If you're working on a manuscript intended for the Christian youth market and need some outside help, then consider attending Write 2 Ignite's one day summer workshop. Here is a brief blurb from their website:
A Day Apart is not another conference. It’s not a writer’s retreat. And it’s not just a workshop. It’s more than a critique group or a writer’s group. A Day Apart is bits of all these things rolled into one day. It is A Day Apart for us to focus on revision, and on helping each other perform radical surgery on ailing manuscripts.
Please see their website for more information.

The weekend will be filled with great speakers, opportunities to be critiqued, and workshops on many different facets of writing, publishing, and marketing (including one by yours truly).
#3 If you love reading YA books and adore meeting their authors, then you need to check out the "Ash to Nash Book Tour." This novel idea (all puns intended) is the brainchild of Myra McEntire, Victoria Schwab, and Beth Revis. As they journey through the south, they will be joined by other authors including Alan Gratz (one of my favorite middle grade authors) and Ruta Sepetys.t’

I've been to several SCBWI conferences in PA over the years. They were always very well done.

Wish I could join you, Carol, at the SCBWI Ash to Nash COnference. It'd be great to meet you southern girls.
I'm actually just doing 2 out of these three-- the W2I and the SCBWI one. I've got to leave some time for writing...right?! Thanks for visiting, ladies!
