Win a picture book critique from me! #kidlit
I just had a great critique session with @kaitlynleann17.bsky.social Kaitlyn Sanchez. She helped me understand what was missing in my recent manuscript so that I can take it from good to great. I highly recommend working with her to polish up picture book manuscripts!
I deleted THOUSANDS of old emails...it was like deleting thousands of "good intentions" and "to dos" that didn't need to get done. I feel like I want to declutter everywhere!
Sent a query/submission out today. It still makes me nervous...but I'm trying to shift into feeling excited instead! ;)
Valentine's Day is almost here, so I'm spreading some critique love.
Anyone who reposts this will be entered into a drawing for a 50% off critique from me this February!
Reshare by midnight pst 2/10/25 to get entered into the drawing!
Good luck!

There's still time to join @12x12challenge.bsky.social this year. The webinars with industry professionals are always informative and the critique section with "Ninja" critiques are always helpful in getting my work to the next level. #12x12PB
I've never actually used it in conversation...maybe I should start! I'd love some extra good luck. :)
Whenever I think of Elizabeth Taylor, I can hear her line from the "White Diamonds" perfume commercial, "These have always brought me luck!"
Hoping it goes well for you...
My mom brought over enough soup and oranges to get rid of the current germs plaguing me and the future ones I haven't even met yet! :D Moms are the best.

Whatever happens, never forget: READING FOR PLEASURE has the biggest positive impact of any factor on children's life chances. So always make time to share books with kids, and help them find books to love. Make reading central to everything you do. It will change their lives forever!

Using my sick days as writing days. Sent off a few submissions!
The flu finally got me...
I have learned that I need to be more careful though drafts and be sure to take things out from previous drafts if they no longer make sense!
