Given that one of my #TheTraitors posts yesterday got a little bit of traction (a lot for me, okay!), here's a reminder to y'all that I am a freelance children's book editor and author, and I'm always on the lookout for work! #kidlit #editorsofbluesky #writersofbluesky

Stronger writing starts with teamwork. 💪

I know I have been guilty of this.
