Question for the Twitterverse (X-verse?): Do Scholastic reading levels match those of the Common Core Standards in public schools? If not, does anyone know why and which is more accurate for the child reader? (Asking for a friend:) #WritingCommmunity #kidlit
“By 2040, 70% of US will live in 15 states with 30 senators. That means 30% of country, which is whiter, more rural, more conservative, will elect 70% of senators” Please listen to my @nprfreshair interview with Terry Gross about my new book Minority Rule npr.org/2024/04/22/124…

I attended a great webinar with Adria Goetz this past week and she had some really great insight into picture books and what is selling. It’s inspired me to add more layers into my new manuscript. I think she has another affordable webinar on her website you can pay to see.
Happy Independent Bookstore Day! Go hug a bookseller. 📚📚📚
❤️ ❤️ ❤️ This post made my day!
This just got added to my bucket list. Sounds like a dream come true! Wanna come, @ElleMStew? =) Once Upon a Time, the World of Picture Books Came to Life nytimes.com/2024/04/01/boo…

Researching agents this morning and stumbled upon this gorgeous poem: mbgoffstein.com/how-to-write-a…
But as they spend time in the world of MnM together, old wounds left by Jo's toxic ex begin to resurface. Will she and Felix be able to create something real admidst fantasy, or do some wounds run too deep? Will they learn to roll the dice and take a chance on love?
Felix has no idea how roleplaying games work, but if he's going to save his job--and the library--he's got to figure it out. Lucky for him, cute, curvy, nerdy Jo is willing to help him out.
It's happening! My debut romcom will be out on June 25! More info and cover reveal coming very soon. Preorders start at end of April! I'm so freakin' excited I can't even tell you. #romancebooks #DnD #RomCom #WritingCommunity #books

As someone who loves puzzles in any form (sudoku, crossword, jigsaw, oh my!), I absolutely loved @JustinRColon and @PatZMiller's webinar on Puzzling Out Your Picture Book. I was even able to work through a story with her tips while listening. Thanks! Check it out, #kidlit! 🤩
@LitAgentKatieM From that picture, it looks like we're all super cute at least 😉
@JLindseyBooks I love that it looks like I keep all my ducks in a row when this is how I feel most days! 😂😂
@marchsoloway My debut PB as an author/illustrator (just announced) was on sub for two years! And ended up with the perfect Editor and AD so it was definitely worth the wait.
If you're waiting to hear from someone (agents or editors, etc.) and worried, hang in there. Publishing is a long game, and it's worth the wait, I promise. As much as I love to sell a book in weeks, my most gratifying deals were years in the making. Good luck, #amwriting!
Each of these projects are great books. Some sold at auction, some in a preempt, and some with hard-won single offers. However, just because something takes a long time to sell doesn't mean future readers won't flock to buy a copy. 3/4
Another one bites the dust.. lost another one…. 😞 Time to pick myself up, dust myself off and get back to hustling….

What am I smiling about? I'm out of the querying trenches! I'm super excited to announce that I have accepted an offer of representation from @LitAgentKatieM! #kidlit #writingcommunity
@PBAuthorTH messages me he has no power but wants to write.. I suggest pen and paper… his response-
When you get your son’s Bearded Dragon a leash with wings and share the picture with your client, his wheels start turning and now I’m pretty positive it’ll be a story soon 😏 #kidlit @PBAuthorTH #beardie #beardeddragon #hehaswings
here’s a publishing secret: it takes way longer to read submissions if they’re good
When one of my authors helps critique another one of my authors PB books and it’s *chef’s kiss* it’s a beautiful thing! #kidlit #nextoutonsub #literaryagent #authorshelpingauthors @AprilBerryBooks @PBAuthorTH

@adriamgoetz It was was so informative. One thing that surprised me was the gold standard for word count in PBs. I'm going over my manuscripts now, trimming words.
