  7. Sometimes I think we all use too many of these ---> !!! but honestly this occasion deserves many many exclamation marks. This publication is a fab ambassador for the amazing organisation that is SCBWI. If you're writing or illustrating picture books, you need Words & Pictures and SCBWI in equal measure! *throws even more confetti*

We love comments and really appreciate the time it takes to leave one.
Interesting and pithy reactions to a post are brilliant but we also LOVE it when people just say they've read and enjoyed.
We've made it easy to comment by losing the 'are you human?' test, which means we get a lot of spam. Fortunately, Blogger recognises these, so most, if not all, anonymous comments are deleted without reading.
