What a lovely day!

We had a lovely time yesterday. There was food, fizz, cake and chatter - people meeting for the first time or catching up in real life after an age!   It was so lovely to see everyone and especially to welcome Angela Cerrito, SCBWI’s Assistant International Advisor…
In my back garden.
Wow.
