I have been sitting on this news for a while, and I can’t wait to share these jaw-dropping stories with readers! Thanks to my agent @StaceyKondla for believing in this project and to editor Tom Russell for sharing my nerdy vision. #NonFiction #middlegrade #WriterCommunity
Hey #PBauthor #amwriting #12x12 friends. Is anyone interested in a little one-off ranking party? No critique/feedback required- just sharing some PB manuscripts and getting a first-reaction ranking of preference. Hoping to get a handful of people together. #writingcommunity
I am open to queries for just 5 more days and I am seriously looking for an adult werewolf story—any steam level from not to hot. I made a special genre tag for this and everything, so PLEASE SEND TO MEEEEEEE🕯️
Hey writers, Does anyone know where to find a free cheat sheet/ template/guide that lays out a chapter book? I would love to see a visual representation of what each chapter includes if you know of any good ones. #Kidlit #writingcommunity #chapterbooks

578 Followers 1K Following Mum of 3; keen writer, reader, tea drinker and novice triathlete. @WritingMagazine’s #PictureBookPrize Shortlist 2021, Highly Commended 2022I have been sitting on this news for a while, and I can’t wait to share these jaw-dropping stories with readers! Thanks to my agent @StaceyKondla for believing in this project and to editor Tom Russell for sharing my nerdy vision. #NonFiction #middlegrade #WriterCommunity
At library event today, I met a girl who was excited to meet me. Turns out not only did her teacher read them my book. But every teacher in their grade has my book in their classroom. Thanks to an administrator seeing my segment on the local news.
I was thinking about doing a YouTube video with “live” thoughts on real queries. A behind-the-scenes look of what an agent might see/think. 1. Any interest in that? 2. Any volunteers? (Personal information would be blurred out) #WritingCommunity
If I started a podcast interviewing authors on their journey after they’re offered a book deal, would anyone want to be on it?!?!?!
As of today, I’ve gone through all my #queries. So much talent! I wish I could rep so many of you, but it’s just not possible. If you haven’t heard back from me yet, I am still considering your query/submission. #amquerying #literaryagent
Hey #PBauthor #amwriting #12x12 friends. Is anyone interested in a little one-off ranking party? No critique/feedback required- just sharing some PB manuscripts and getting a first-reaction ranking of preference. Hoping to get a handful of people together. #writingcommunity
I am open to queries for just 5 more days and I am seriously looking for an adult werewolf story—any steam level from not to hot. I made a special genre tag for this and everything, so PLEASE SEND TO MEEEEEEE🕯️
@chellysbooks I just learned about this writer. She will email you a free link using the Save the Cat model. instagram.com/reel/C5EgtjNAr…
I am beyond excited to announce the wonderful news!!! I’m now agented by the wonderful @mlindorice . She loves my stories and will help me get them out into the world. Pinch me! Believe in your dreams! ✨💗@LCSLiterary
@chellysbooks I keep meaning to physically chop apart a chapter book and lay it out to get a visual of what happens where, but I’m secretly hoping someone has already done it so I can ride on their coattails.
And apparently standard book contracts would require the author to cover the cost of the license fee.
@AuthorJMorrison Ty for sharing your story ♥️ I'm in the trenches right now, and I truly believe patience is my #1 lesson for this lifetime, so I understand the struggle! Sometimes mistakes are what we need to push us in a better direction.
Hey, #Kidlit it's giveaway time! I'm giving away a critique for a non-rhyming PB, CB, MG or YA (up to 700 words) for this week's #MidWeekCritique! To enter, follow me & comment with a gif about how your day is going. Winner will be announced Wednesday, April 24th.
😄Haha, so fun to make this video #Kidlit. If you can, please join me for a special TRICKY CHOPSTICKS storytime on National Tell a Story Day at Barnes & Noble Kirkland 4/27 @11am! 🥳 See more info &/or RSVP at trickychopsticks.com/events! @wenfancyart @SimonKIDS @bn_kirkland

My view for the weekend 🥰 it’s been far too long since I’ve had a good and true break, so I’m challenging myself to not write, read things for work, or email until Monday AM. 💜
The 2024 #PBParty Honorable Mentions are up on my website. Huge congrats to them...and to everyone who worked hard and put themselves out there by entering. There's also a form for those seeking a new critique group or occasional PB swaps. mindyalyseweiss.com/2024-pbparty-h…
You guys know I love me some Taylor, but I am FIRMLY in my Chappell Roan era, and I cannot stop listening. So if you’re querying a project that feels like the bridge in GOOD LUCK BABE, inform me IMMEDIATELY. 🥰 #MSWL
GUYS. I can't believe I get to say.... that I am now rep'd by the inimitable @JoyceGrackle of the @seymouragency!!! Sending out so much love and appreciation for @MindyAlyseWeiss and the incredible judges of #PBParty What a world, what a dream💫
