My #PBParty submission is in and I'm cheering everyone on!
If you're an unagented writer or author/illustrator of picture books, I hope you'll enter the 2025 #PBParty contest. It has helped make so many agent and editor matches in the past...and we can't wait to see the magical matches that will happen this year.

It's always hard to resist taking a friend's book out of the library. It's SO good! But gotta leave it for the kiddos!! (Hooked on Books written by Margaret Chiu Greanias)

If you're finding Bluesky "too quiet", you need to think about you mean as well as your goals for social media. Please read my updated Bluesky tips blog post.
Feel free to forward this link to those who say "I tried Bluesky but it was too quiet / I wasn't getting any traction" etc.

Bit by bit I'm finding the picture book writing people. Let me know if there are lists of agents/editors/writers I should know about. I like the story I wrote today and I'm feeling chipper!

I'm welcoming myself to BlueSky! None of that outside our window right now. I'm back in the #amquerying trenches after a brief hiatus. The SCBWI #kitlit market review (by the great Deborah Halverson) was a challenging one. May the odds be ever in our favor going forward!

I'm welcoming myself to BlueSky! Not something we actually have out the window today. I'm a picture book author who is back in the query trenches after a short hiatus. The SCBWI market review (by the amazing Deborah Halverson) was a challenging one. May the odds be ever in our favor going forward!
