The Mid-Atlantic chapter of SCBWI organized the Novel Revision Retreat in Shenandoah this month. In attendance was Alisha Niehaus, Editor at Dial Books for Young Readers (an imprint of Penguin Group, USA). Alisha’s publications/authors include: Savvy by Ingrid Law (2009 Newbery Honor); The Vast Fields of Ordinary by Nick Burd (2010 ALA Stonewall Winner); The Sky Is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson; The Total Tragedy of a Girl Named Hamlet by Erin Dionne.

That's a great line-up! I loved The Sky is Everywhere. SCBWI-MI is having a novel revision retreat this fall, but I can't make it this year.
