What an inspirational talk by the magical (as Sarah so accurately described her) Vanessa Brantley Newton! She gave us a directive, friends: "Get to working on your dream!โ #scbwiny25 @scbwi.bsky.social
Counting the minutes to the start of the @scbwi.bsky.social conference!!! Who will I see in the coffee lounge today? What are you most looking forward to today? #scbwiny25
Three people sitting at a table, smiling at the camera. The table is cluttered with laptops, notebooks, charging cables, and a water bottle.
