Wanted to get in a quick post today before I go pick up the boy--thought I'd share a bit of the table of contents for the 2010 CWIM (available early August) so you all can see what's in store. I've got some terrific features and interview this year! (Plus now when you buy the book you have access to all the market in a searchable online database. Finally!) Take a look:

I'm out of the office tomorrow (escorting my husband to his shoulder surgery) so no Friday post. But come back and see me on Monday. I'm excited to have a little time to blog again--I'll be posting daily.
Sounds wonderful, Alice! I always look forward to my new copy of the CWIM and have even hung onto my old copies because I like to reread the articles. Thanks for all you do!
I have a question. A few years ago I believe you had an interview or an article about Deborah Ruddell who wrote, Today At the Bluebird Cafe. I wanted to reread it but can't find it and I've held onto every old copy of my CWIM back to 2004. Do you by any chance remember which issue that article appeared in?
I'll Be Back Soon--2010 CWIM Is Almost Finished...
Still too busy to keep up my normal blogging schedule--swept up in the excitement of getting books to the printer. A few more to go and I'll be back to my regular every-weekday posting.
The final stages of the 2010 CWIM are coming up next. I'll let you know when it's done! In the near future I'll offer some CWIM teasers and some SCBWI Team Blog coverage.
In the meantime behold the 2010 CWIM cover. It's a lovely shade of blue (although it doesn't quite match my photo over there) and will be available at the end of July:
It's a huge annual project - congrats on being so close to completing this one... and with the timing, it's almost like the book is "graduating!" Namaste, Lee
You are amazing. This is always on my must have list and I even pre ordered it in March. This year must have been a bit harder to edit since there have been so many changes in the publishing industry.
