Austin SCBWI

What delightful expressions of joy, laughter, intensity, wonder, and camaraderie! Notice how our fantastic logo (generously created by Erik Kuntz, Volunteer of the Year) peeks in at precisely the right moment. See how generously highly-acclaimed, award-winning authors and illustrators gave of themselves for the greater benefit of others. How cool is that?

As you watch (and re-watch) this video, listen closely to Katy Perry, Green Day, and Donavon Frankenreiter’s great lyrics as they celebrate the feeling of community we are so very lucky call our own.  Though almost impossible to accomplish, their words come close to describing the energy that flowed during Books, Boots, and Buckskin – The Austin SCBWI 2011 Regional Conference.
