Participants will also be paired with three others. You will read all three manuscripts prior to the retreat and provide written critiques. You will also meet with this group regularly throughout the weekend to comment on one another's manuscripts.
There will also be time to write and revise.

You will then receive three manuscripts by Sept. 1 that you will read before the retreat.

All lodging, food, and sessions are included in this fee.(If you join SCBWI before registering, you will receive member price.) You may pay using the PayPal buttons here.
