I’m excited to announce that I’m now represented by the fabulous @JoleneHaley! I can’t imagine a more encouraging & thoughtful person to help bring my book into the hands of middle grade readers. She’s a champion of connecting kids with nature. I’m so grateful to work with her!🌳

@sarakapadia I am in the exact same spot! How hard is it *really* to do two books at once 😉

So many great free writing exercises to develop characters in the @scbwi workshop by @DebbiMichiko - thank you!!

Writing “workshop pedagogy is largely shaped by “lore,” by writers teaching what they learned as students rather than by pedagogical theory or intersectional criticism.” CRAFT IN THE REAL WORLD by Matthew Salesses - thought provoking book- so good!

@SBurch_Author I’ve started speed writing during my daughter’s dance class to get words in whenever I can. Last week I found myself writing to the beat of MJ’s Thriller then Flight of the Bumblebee😂

Are you racing or training? When you’re racing it’s all using your strength. When you’re training it’s about building up weaknesses. 95% of the time should be training- that’s how you get stronger. Applying this to my writing. 🤯 From the amazing podcast @beliefagency
