My mentorship with the wonderful Dr. Mira Reisberg @cba-kidlit.bsky.social is ending. Her classes, critiques, and agent/editor nights finetuned my manuscripts, pitches, and queries. I'll miss her. Luckily, there are many courses I can go back to throughout this year to continue to learn and grow!

The Toadstool Bookshops made it very easy to purchase a book donation for #50PreciousWords. I went with a fun Questioneers chapter book by Andrea Beaty, illustrated by David Roberts.

Wow! Another great session planned by my wonderful mentor @mira-cba.bsky.social with editor @katedepalma.bsky.social! I'm fired up to focus on the power of pacing.
