#KidLitChat How has the next quarter already passed?!

I started interning with @kaitlynleann17.bsky.social in September. I’m really enjoying that. I love learning!

I finished an expansion revision for MG NIV. And now I’m working on trimming it into something manageable.

TOPIC: It's quarterly check-in time! Time to bask in the accomplishments of the last three months--or breathe a sigh of relief that you've managed to *get through* the past three months. Either way, share what's been going, career-wise, since September! #kidlitchat

I'm apparently V bad @ the internets & missed that winners were posted, & GUESS WHAT? I'm 1 of them!

And I was hand picked by the amazing @alexgino.bsky.social, author of Melissa.

I'm beyond excited. Thank you @lydialukidis.bsky.social & @kaitlynleann17.bsky.social & @professoraixa.bsky.social

Book announcement over an orange megaphone. Two female headshots accompany the text. BOOK NEWS Michael Green at Marble Press has acquired world rights to Pirate Baby by Monica Acker (I.), illustrated by Susana Soto. In this picture book, Captain Cally takes whatever she fancies and never gives a single thing in return-until she fishes a houseplant from the sea and reluctantly tends to it, allowing them both to grow. Publication is slated for fall 2026; Kaitlyn Sanchez at Bradford Literary represented the author, and Kate Webber at Good Illustration represented the artist.
