Great news! LISTENING TO THE QUIET has been selected as a Recommended Read for Reception (Kindergarten) on the new 2024 BooksForTopics Year Group lists! booksfortopics.com/booklists/reco…
I see lots of people asking about #PBParty honorable mentions. They're coming soon--probably by Thursday night. Wahoooooo! I have to get the post ready & will try to add stats (if not, those will be in a future post). I have crits due for my group that meets tomorrow first &…
As a beekeeper, horror lover, & author, this was inevitable . . . Honored to team up w/ fellow @abla/@marchsoloway client, @kalyquarles & bring these undead bees to life in in this Colón/Quarles creature feature. *Sound on 🧵Some fun openings lines, images, and thanks below.
Justin has helped me with all of these things. I gained applicable skills that helped me improve my entire body of work, and it changed the trajectory of my career. Five stars :)
Need help w/ a manuscript, query letter, pitch, comp titles? I can help! My 1st 2 picture books sold in a 2-book deal to a Big 5. My next 2 sold in another 2-book deal. My 5th sold at auction. I've helped nearly 100 editorial clients now. Learn more at kidlithive.com/editorial-serv…
I had no idea my daughter memorized this poem until she told me that she shared it at school yesterday for World Poetry Day. What a happy poetry moment! Tea with the Sea was originally published in the Spring 2021 issue of @thecaterpilla20. 🥰
Hooray! Hooray! I just signed with a new agent. I'm now represented by @christiemegill at the CAT agency! Please help me celebrate by sharing pictures of yummy food or cute pets 😃
Oh #kidlit, my heart is ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥! Just signed so many pre-ordered books @BrckMrtrBooks this morning—it was total joy seeing dear names of friends+family, previous coworkers, school connections, #kidlit folks, & true fans! Loved signing & giving the SUPER-swag packs for pickup/mail.
🥳Congrats to all #PBParty finalists, we are SO thrilled to celebrate with you!🎉 💓And to ALL who applied to #PBParty, a huge heartfelt congrats for taking your chance for an *incredibly tough* contest—I wish every entrant good news of any type to come your way next.✨💫🫶

Maybe an unpopular opinion but… It’s ok to skip contests, pitch events, etc. Choose the writing path you feel is best, and do what you need to protect your mental health. And remember not to let the things above define whether or not you think you’re a good writer.
Huge thanks to #PBParty judges @SylviaiChen, @GDavisBooks, @ProfessorAixa, @mar_illustrates, @BrittanyPomales, @Scarbrough_Art & Jenna Waldman. I'm so grateful for the countless hours they've spent making dreams come true. 💖 There's a surprise in this post & info about the…
Of course I have to share this oldie! It’s pi day! #kidlitart #illustrator
YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW FREAKIN EXCITED I AM. I AM SCREAMING. ONE OF MY WRITER BFFS IS NOW MY AGENT SIBLING. Cathie should be scared.
I have an agent!!! I am so excited to announce that I am now represented by @C_H_Armstrong at @Tpurcellagency! This is such a dream come true and I’m absolutely thrilled to be working with Cathie on my publishing journey ❤️
That feeling you get when you *thought* your manuscript was query-ready and then you receive valid feedback that you've still got some work to do. #Monday #PB #KidLit #AmWriting #Writingcommunity
It's amazing seeing how our votes are in synch for some #PBParty entries--and all over the place for others. An informational fiction entry caught my interest. I dove into the full & love, love, love it! So clever and fun with an amazing voice and awesome facts organically…
Next Saturday, March 9th, I will be signing at the @CapitalBooksOnK table during @sacconventions. It will be the ONLY event where copies of THE EFFECTS OF PICKLED HERRING will be available before its March 26th release!
