Such fun memories from @scbwi.bsky.social #scbwiny25
studio-yuey.bsky.social Yu Kito Lee “Yuey” @studio-yuey.bsky.social · Feb 8
To process #scbwiny25, I sketched some of the amazing people I spent time with. #Kidlit community is a rare kind of warmth, and getting to talk about picture books and comics with people who are just as passionate was a real treat. 💖 I’m already looking forward to next year.
Thank you SCBWI!
There were so many highlights, but the best part was definitely the community! I met the most welcoming, supportive, and ridiculously talented people. My badge!! Trading and collecting postcards might be my new hobby. Favorite slide from Sophie Blackall’s keynote.
