I, too, love those Haiku book reviews! Genius!
Hey, thanks for including me. I'm glad the OK SCBWI post was in some way helpful. I wish more authors would post about their conferences. Let's us all know which editors are out there speaking and seeking :-)
This is great! I keep wishing people would put up lists like this. Thanks!
Awesome link jungle, Beth!!! Thanks for the link to my interview. Lois was so nice to do that. :)
PJ: I love them, too!
Stacy: Thank YOU for doing the article! I so agree with you...and plan on blogging my own conference this fall.
Davin: I'm glad you like it! I always feel a bit of a cop-out when I do a linkspam since there's no real content from me, but I think it is useful.
Glam: Thanks! The interview was cool--I love getting to know my blog peeps more! :)
Oh my goodness! You're going to keep me busy this weekend--thanks for all these links!
