A big hello from Southwest Texas!

We are glad you found our website.

The Southwest Texas Chapter is one region of the International Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI).

We offer advice, information, market news, and encouragement, to writers and illustrators of children's literature, both published and unpublished.

In San Antonio we have bi-monthly meetings which are open to the public. See our calendar for information on upcoming events and locations. Visit our blog for the latest chapter news.

Each region is organized by a volunteer called the "Regional Advisor". Our Regional Advisor is Heather Powers. Contact her at Heather's email if you have any questions or comments.

Editor Day Registration is now open!  For complete details, click here.

Thank you for your interest in our chapter and we hope to see you soon at one of our meetings!
