We hope you will join us for our annual spring conference on March 27 and 28th, 2026, in beautiful Homewood, Alabama. Gather with fellow writers, illustrators, translators, agents, editors, and other children's book publishing professionals for a day of craft, networking, professional development, and community. Make new connections, meet new friends, learn and explore, and refine your creative and business skills to move your kidlit career forward. With optional pre-conference intensives offered on Friday afternoon, March 27, and a free kidlit creators' social and trivia night event that evening. Sunday afternoon Shanda McCloskey will host a free event at the library. This will be a weekend to remember! Early Bird pricing ends February 12.
