What a spectacular ritual! They’re so pretty. ✨ Congratulations!!

We need to keep talking about how weird it is for people to think they should have a say in reading choices for anyone's kids but their own. You're not in charge of what other people's children eat or wear or when they go to bed. Why on earth would you get to choose what they read?

I am here for this. A 14 year old protagonist should be welcomed, not avoided at all costs! #uppermiddlegrade

Thank you so much, Barbara! 💛

One of my fave plotting methods is the Sticky Note method that I learned at a workshop taught by David Macinnis Gill. I've used it for every novel that sold & now there's a craft book about it! I've tweaked the method to work for me (a pantster), but I swear by it! www.stickynoteplot.com/snpbp

Absolutely. Even when your kids are just two years apart!

Soooo wishing I was there!

Absolutely!!

So real 😔

Life is short. Have a scone.

Team Howland is so excited to have you!!!! And I can’t wait to bring more Jackie books to the world ❤️

Thank you, Rebecca!! It’s such a surprising gift. 🥰 I’m thrilled we get to work on books together again… now at Howland Literary!! 🫶📚

Best Day Ever! My former agent is now my current agent and I couldn’t be more thrilled! Publishing is a wild ride and @bookfairyangus.bsky.social and I are proof! 🎉🥰📚

It’s been more than a little while since I’ve had writing or bookish news to share. But after 4 long years, I finally do!! 💕✨ #writingcommunity #middlegrade #kidlit

Surviving the Slow Burn of Middle Grade, a guest post by Shannon Messenger The trick is to not give up while the slow burn runs its course.

Excellent guest post by Shannon Messenger on the slow burn of Keeper of the Lost Cities. It’s absolutely my favorite #mglit series…To hear about its humble beginnings is shocking but so inspiring!✨ teenlibrariantoolbox.com/2024/11/20/s...

A writer’s vibe may be calm and serene on the outside. We think up stories. We write words. But on the inside our minds are swirling all the time, creating a universe, building a giant puzzle, being a puppet master. It’s a fun, sneaky life! #mglit #kidlit #writingcommunity

What spectacular book piles. Looks like middle grade is alive and well! 📚💙

If you write MG, you should know of Greg Pattridge and his blog Always in the Middle, with a “Marvelous Middle Grade Monday” review compilation. Reading those reviews provides a great overview of the current market and can inform mentor text and comp title lists. gpattridge.com/2024/11/18/m...

Hi Laurie, I’d love to be added also. Thank you for compiling these lists! ☺️

Happy Book Anniversary!! What a cute cover!!

Hi #kidlit peeps! This starter pack is for educators, librarians, authors/illustrators, and MG enthusiasts in the FB group For the Love of Middle Grade. If you're in that group and not in this pack, comment and I'll add you. And if you're not in that group and love MG, join us! go.bsky.app/3KWmQJs

Sounds very reasonable to me 😂☺️
