From first draft to final copy, a novel goes through many stages of change. Join Kathy MacMillan, author of Sword and Verse (HarperTeen, 2016), and screenwriter Manuela Bernardi, the book's betareader, for a frank discussion of feedback and how it shapes the revision process. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing after the program. This program is co-sponsored by the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators MD/DE/WV Region.”
