Aw rats, so close. Plenty of bird MCs in my #mglit book, and even a few rituals, though less exorcism and more funeral. A touch of pigeon religion too :P

(psst- the MSWL tag is for agents and publishers! you might be more interested in the questpit tag, which is for writers!)

(i like your story though, as one bird animal fiction middle grade author to another)

Highflight's Journey would be the book for you then! I did my best to lean into the kind of culture and societies that would develop in a world where almost everything around you wants to eat you

Pigeon MC! I'm exceedingly fond of them and always have a had a soft spot for the "underdog", as it was. (though I guess this would be an underbird...?)

#kidlitchat I am definitely very reliant on technology these days (RIP to all my friends' DMs who I've written in when a flash of inspo sparks....). I find it a bit of a blessing and a curse-- blessing because of the convenience, but a curse because it's so convenient to get distracted.

#kidlitchat considering i'm not even published, this feels like a distant dream and it's hard to even think about but first order of business would definitely be putting it on EVERY social media i have :)

I've looked in the past and it seems that there is a LOT of backlog that was uploaded from the other place which makes it hard to find what's from here and what's old. I'll take a closer look either later tonight or tomorrow morning to see if I can find it though

(again, I don't know who facilitated that over on the other site, so if i'm stepping on any toes, my bad. i would just love to help be a part of bringing that back, if people would like it) :)

but would it make a cliffhanger hit harder? 🤔

(i don't read on kindles almost at all but i think that would just make me angry, actually :P )

yippee!

i hope if it's ever read out loud, they do voices (even silly voices) for the characters! i think getting rid of the different voices would do it an injustice #kidlitchat
