  1. Thank you, Debbie and Angie! Your personal thoughts on the winter season, the holidays, and the promise of a new year are enlightening--and so elegantly written. I'm taking the first few days of January to reread your blog article to reset my goals for 2020.

  2. Hi Everyone! I'm a brand new member of SCBWI. I am so glad that you have an Diversity and Equity Corner.

    I am also brand new to the process of writing children's books. I am excited about learning and sharing.

    Warmly,

    Lorna Gonsalves

    P.S. I don't know if this is the proper forum for introducing myself. If it is not, please let me know
