General Guidelines
to Prepare for Meetings
Adapted from 2014 SCBWI Summer Conference
- Read books by our presenters.
- Familiarize yourself with agent/editor websites. Read on-line interviews.
- Come prepared with questions about featured books, about process and craft, about submission possibilities.
- Take notes
- After meetings, follow up: touch base with your new friends. Say thank you.
