New Substack today! What is happening to our young readers' enjoyment of reading? What can we do to fix it? I'd love to hear your thoughts/experiences about this! Please comment below, plus there's a chat thread on my Substack for paid subscribers!
#books#reading#readers
In my newest Substack posts for #writers, you can read about ways to sign with agents without querying, developing deeply resonating characters, 8 querying and publishing myths, and this week's extra newsletter for paid subscribers breaks down a query letter submission!
Lastly, I have a https://t.co/GVfmV2fYI0 affiliate link! I'm still growing my book lists, but check out my recommendations for client books, fiction, nonfiction, and craft books. It supports your local indie bookstore, the author, and yours truly. :) https://t.co/FaJdaqghHH
#WritingCommunity: I now have a Substack newsletter! Kat's Keynotes will feature advice on writing, editing, querying, and publishing-related topics. As a thank you for subscribing, you can get my comprehensive Character Development Worksheets! #writers#AmQuerying#AmWriting
I'm also providing AMAs and query and first-ten-page reviews on the Story Nerd podcast! Many of you may already follow Valerie Francis and Melanie Hill on Story Nerd; now I'm a co-host! Catch my Hook Your Reader episodes every other Friday, starting today! :)

#Writingcommunity ANNOUNCEMENT📢
I'm opening to #NONFICTION PROJECTS ONLY until I reach ~100ish queries. Proposals must be complete, ready, and show a strong platform with measurable reach. See bio for #MSWL.
No fiction at this time please.

#Writers#Authors! I've opened 2 more spots in August for full manuscript edits (structural, stylistic, or copy) or assessments (one round of structural feedback). Book before they're gone! Otherwise, I have limited availability from October onward.

Happy New Year, #WritingCommunity! I know many of you are preparing your queries and getting ready to send them out to agents ASAP now that 2025 is here. I have an article that can help you ensure your query has what it needs to get noticed! (See below)
