KidlitCon 2012: A Call for Submissions

July 24, 2012 by Betsy Bird   1 comments

That’s right, folks!  We are now accepting proposals for presentations at KidLitCon 2012!

We are looking for 50 minute presentations, panels, and keynotes that will appeal to and edify Kidlitosphere bloggers. Our goal is to provide a balanced selection for a wide range of interests and include, but are not limited to, topics of diversity, reviewing critically, evaluating illustrations, social media, marketing, and technology, and industry relationships.

Proposals are due by August 15, 2012, so be sure to get your ideas in soon!

We’ll only be accepting proposals submitted in the form found here.

Meanwhile, if you have any questions at all you can email them to me at Fusenumber8@gmail.com.

The 6th Annual KidLitCon will be happening September 28-29, 2012 in New York, NY.  Registration for the conference will open on Monday, July 30th.

    Oh dag! It’s on the same days as the Baltimore Book Festival! Hopefully I’ll be able to come up for a day, I’d hate to miss KidLitCon entirely.
