Pre-#NY13SCBWI Interview with Molly O'Neill

Molly O'Neill is an editor at HarperCollins' Katherine Tegen Books imprint. She publishes literary and commercial fiction in the picture book, middle grade, and YA categories, and will be giving two breakout workshops on the Saturday of the upcoming 14th Annual SCBWI Winter Conference in New York City, February 1st-3rd, 2013, WHAT HOOKS ME.  She'll be talking about her list, and sharing

"...some of what drew me to each of those books, as well as some of the questions I ask myself when I’m thinking about acquiring a project."

On her blog, Martha Brockenbrough interviews Molly and finds out about the market, the types of manuscripts and the quality of writers Molly's looking for...and more!

Thanks Martha and Molly!

Registration for #NY13SCBWI is open (early registration ends January 4, 2013), and space is still available.  Keep in mind, the Winter conference sold out last year.  And the year before...
