Poking my head out to ask whether other writers, editors & agents who migrated to #bluesky are back on this platform. I tried to find my #kidlit people there, but so far it’s been pretty disappointing. Thoughts and insights? #amwriting #WritingCommunity

Desperate for her ex-NFL quarterback dad’s attention, 12-year-old Phoebe Bloomfield, a ballet dancer in her sporty older sister's shadow, starts a football team at her all-girls NYC private school. But is it enough to get her noticed? #TLPPitch #MG #PitchParty

Check out this awesome agent/author interview with @ericsmithrocks ! As a bonus, he's graciously included a lot of advice for all you #amquerying authors out there.

@MissNikkiIn5th Let me know how you get on. I'm still finding my sea legs on Bluesky

[Melissa Roske @MelissaRoske]

@MissNikkiIn5th I'm your first follower on Bluesky!!!

[Melissa Roske @MelissaRoske]

@MissNikkiIn5th Nikki! So many are now on Bluesky. I might move over there, but I'm so torn. So many wonderful connections were made on this platform... including YOU! 🩷

[Melissa Roske @MelissaRoske]

So, I'm still on this platform (for now).
But #kidlit and #WritingCommunity friends: please find me on Bluesky: @melissaroske.bsky.social
It's daunting to start over, and I'm still getting the hang of it, but I'd love to connect with my writing people! #amwriting

[Melissa Roske @MelissaRoske]

@Kpteach5 I hear you, Kristen.

[Melissa Roske @MelissaRoske]

Who else is on the fence whether to leave Twitter? On the one hand, I have come to love and appreciate the support of the wonderful #WritingCommunity. On the other hand...

[Melissa Roske @MelissaRoske]

@houseofrosen Wow. This is unreal.

[Melissa Roske @MelissaRoske]

So, Americans would rather have a convicted felon in office than a strong woman of color, married to a Jew. No surprise, but sickening nonetheless. #Election2024

Harris is the projected winner in New York!

I had the honor of recording a very special E Train Talks episode today as I spoke with award-winning authors @TorreyMaldonado & @baronchrisbaron about so many important issues related to toxic masculinity in #MGlit and how to combat societal norms. I’m so grateful for Chris and Torrey & I’m excited to release our talk soon! @PenguinClass @penguinkids #toxicmasculinity #kindness #books #MGLit #teachers #ComingSoon
