As always, I understand how stressful the querying process can be, so a reminder...

You can read and learn from two dozen successful query letters and six non-fiction book proposals (that sold!), all for free, right here: https://t.co/nrhFVxXbJE

Good luck. You can do it. 💛

Last year we piloted a MG mentorship @InkedVoices with @artsylliu and this year we've expanded to 5 brilliant and generous authors. Super exciting!

[Sylvia Liu @artsylliu]

Wonderful news for MG writers! It’s so hard to find mentors and @InkedVoices is offering five this year!

[Sylvia Liu @artsylliu]

I've given a lot of advice and mentored writers, and one of my main pieces of advice: DON'T SELF REJECT! Go for the award or mentorship or writing opportunity. The worst that can happen is you don't get it. If you don't go for it, you definitely won't get it. #WritingCommunity
