Woohoo! Thrilled to share that my entry FLACO: Feathered Lives Count won 4th place in #50preciouswords hosted by the incredible @viviankirkfield! Congrats to all the winners and honorable mentions! Thank you judges for your precious time! Hope you can now R&R (Rest & Relax) :)

I heard today that #amquerying authors are getting an agent at a rate of 1 in 6k. 🤯 So remember, passes often have to do with factors you aren’t aware of (# of queries, their author list, etc.)! And to those who were agented this year, CONGRATS! 🥳 It’s a HUGE feat! 🙌

@BrianGehrlein Sounds like a br-AI-nrotting task.

Writing new picture books instead of grading AI-generated essays sounds really great about now 🫠

@KristaVanDolzer Such a unique premise! Want to read more <3

When a teacher assigns unusual pen pals, Cal hopes to make a faraway friend. Instead, they’re partnered with…MATH?! UGH! (Who even uses math? Not Cal!) But the unusual letter exchange soon reveals a friend Cal can count on. #STEM #PitchMe 1 PB

@katie_mcenaney @KaitlynLeann17 @LydiaLukidis @ebonylynnmudd This is how you do NF! Amazing facts that piqued my interest, great job! <3

Hi #WritingCommunity I'm Rozana from India, currently living in Germany. I mostly write #fiction and #picturebooks, though ironically, my debut, "Diwali", was a non-fiction chapter book with ABDO :) Nice to meet you all! #kidlit

Hello #WritingCommunity. I heard it's intro time. 🙌 I'm a teacher, nature enthusiast, writer of #kidlit #nonfiction #informationalfiction #fiction #picturebooks. This year, I signed my first book contract and signed with my agent. We are out on #submission to #editors atm.

So exciting!
