Writers, especially those who write kidlit, I think we need to have a conversation about using parents not telling their child something to “protect them” and why this doesn’t really work especially today.
Does this happen? Yes. And do we see it continuing to happen? Yes.

Do you like books about liminal spaces, with lyrical prose? Books with heroines determined to rewrite their stories even if they have to throttle the narrative? How about sapphic books with lots of yearning, dark humor and lots of skeletons?
How about ALL the above in one book? 😈

Inbox trend I’m noticing in romance:
The two love interests have the same first letter in their name; and while this might not seem like a problem, when all one knows of the story is the query and synopsis it’s hard to remember who is who and things get confusing fast. Do w/ this info what you will

Do NOT waste your time with this one. It’s terrible! And not in a good way—it’s so bad it’s good. It’s just bad. 👎🏻

The holiday season is upon us and so I need all the holiday movies that have publishing as any aspect in the story. MC is a writer. Secondary character wants to write a book or be an illustrator or is an editor or agent… please list that movie here.
