If you're an unagented writer or author/illustrator of picture books, I hope you'll enter the 2025 #PBParty contest. It has helped make so many agent and editor matches in the past...and we can't wait to see the magical matches that will happen this year.

So i finally found the #YAlit to get lost in and it's E. Lockheart's We Were Liars. Un-putdownable and absolutely devastating, in the best way.
I've been looking to get lost in a good contemporary #YA, in the vein of When We Were Them by Laura Taylor Namey. Any recommendations?
Lucky to have such wonderful critique partners! #writingcommunity
A #PBParty success story, I might add!
I'm thrilled to share that I'm now represented by @elisahouot.bsky.social at the Seymour Agency! 🎉
June's book tally: 4. Girl A devastated me. The Many Lives of Mama Love made me cry more than once 🥲
According to Libby I read 6 books in May! (❤️ House in the Cerulean Sea and Invisible Circus). Leaving on a road trip tomorrow with 2 books queued up and more to come so I might beat that record for June 🤓
It's the first day of #AAPIheritagemonth! A few of my favorite #AAPI #kidlit stories: Magic Ramen by @andreaywang.bsky.social, Lei and the Fire Goddess by @maliamaunakea.bsky.social, Eyes That Kiss in the Corners by Joanna Ho. What are yours?
Beautiful day for a mentorship celebration @scbwirockymtn.bsky.social!
Grateful to @andreaywang.bsky.social for sharing her knowledge on all things writing, revising, querying, and helping me believe in my stories 💜
Hard to believe it was 70+ degrees earlier this week! Denver weather is wiiiild
Not a podcast listener normally, but I've been thoroughly enjoying @thebookmaven.bsky.social Missing Pages podcast, uncovering secrets and scandals of the publishing world 🤫 recommended to me by @andreaywang.bsky.social !
