The world is crying, Lee. “Just when everything seems to go along just fine, Life comes by and throws you its line.”

Please read and then go buy Susanna Leonard Hill’s picture book Moon’s First Friends and leave a review. Do that for Natalee Creech’s Nothing and When Day Is Done too. Leave reviews for Debbie Ridpath Ohi’s books she writes and illustrates. Buy I’m Worried. Review it. Thanks!

Today's little ditty by @authorswrite Robyn Campbell is a heart-tugger. (Don't say I didn't warn you.) #dittylove #poetry #RefugeeWeek2019 #TodaysLittleDitty https://t.co/m6SPlPnIXd

[Robyn Campbell @authorswrite]

Today's Little Ditty: DMC: "A Kid Forever More" by Michelle Kogan https://t.co/8cAhisWSgr

[Robyn Campbell @authorswrite]

Kidlit writers/poets hop over to @MichelleHBarnes Little Ditty and take in what Karen Boss, an editor from Charlesbridge has to say. It's the boss. https://t.co/q5LCkTZsTW

[Robyn Campbell @authorswrite]

Can’t wait.

[Robyn Campbell @authorswrite]

And they won’t read them the way we write them to be read. Dang, it all. The best thing a rhyming writer can do, is listen to @joshfunkbooks, take @ReneeMLaTulippe’s class, The Lyrical Language Lab, and join Making Room for Rhyme, (you’ll find a great critique group there).

[Josh Funk @joshfunkbooks]

Rhyming picture books are NOT like songs. People will not hear them and be able to emulate the words the way the singer meant them to be sang.

People will be picking up your book cold - having never read it before - and they must be able to read it well.

[Robyn Campbell @authorswrite]

Haha, what a great tip. Wow. Missed the chat because my blood sugar dropped. Dang, it all! Thanks, @joshfunkbooks, and @JoyceSchr

[Joyce Schriebman @JoyceSchr]

Awesome, if not painful, advice. #PBChat @Murphyrhymer @authorswrite @NancyDereyRiley @BboswellB @NataleeCreech

[Robyn Campbell @authorswrite]

Love them all, especially Gwendolyn Brooks ”Art hurts. Art urges voyages - and it is easier to stay at home.” We Real Cool.
