SCBWI Conference HiJinks When Pen and Ink filmed a Pirate Alphabet.

The 2019 SCBWI Summer Conference is coming and it seems an appropriate time to share what Pen And Ink did at our first conference together in 2011.
On Kris Kahr's suggestion, we gathered up our pirate paraphernalia and asked authors to put on the pirate gear we thoughtfully provided and take a letter of the alphabet.
You may be surprised to see some of the wonderful people who participated. Below are a few frames from the film.
Lupe Fernandez was our videographer and Hilde Garcia, Kris and I lured volunteers to him. My Only regret?  I was sitting next to Judy Blume at one event and she agreed to do it. But I couldn't find Lupe and the rest of the crew. We had so much fun with this.
Here's a link to our film.

The Pirate Alphabet






in 2012 we tried a different stunt. More on that later.
We hope to see you at this year's Summer Conference
