SCBWI California: SoCal
Welcome to SCBWI California: SoCal
If you are just starting out or have a long-standing career as a writer or illustrator, you are invited to join us. We are a friendly group that provides meet-ups, critique groups, a spring MG/YA writers retreat, a hybrid fall conference and book festival opportunities. Our region includes Long Beach and the counties of San Bernardino, Riverside, and Orange. We’re all about making connections!
