Being a #Capricorn means I try to carry everything alone. But writing—and being part of a #community taught me that asking for help doesn’t make me weak. It makes me better. I don’t have to hold the whole mountain by myself. #writer #author #writing #iamwriting

Storytime with A.J. Irving: Bring the whole family along! A.J. Irving will be reading for an all ages storytime at 3pm in the children’s section.

Your book might not sell right now. Not because it’s bad. But because timing, trend, and list-building matter more than most authors realize. Don’t bury your belief in your story just because the market isn’t ready yet.

Our weekly big list of kid lit links is up (Sept 19): kidlit411.com/2025/09/the-... Inside: Kid Lit Trends course @hunderdown.bsky.social , Joyful Marketing @juliefhedlund.bsky.social Reverse Outline, more. Thanks Erin Niehenke for the illustration, Running Press Kids & Scott Lape for the giveaways.

Check out some amazing prizes! "I'm Trick-or-Treating @ #seasonsofkidlit.com!" @literallylynne.bsky.social @authorhmacht.bsky.social

Here’s your reminder: ✅ A typo doesn’t mean your book isn’t worth publishing. ✅ A “meh” draft doesn’t mean the idea isn’t gold. ✅ A quiet day on social doesn’t mean you’re irrelevant. You’re still doing the work. That matters.

I am BEYOND excited about this event. I definitely will be participating! Check it out, the agent/editor panel is amazing! www.scbwi.org/events/flori...

I would love to help you get your #kidlit work-in-progress ready to query or on its path to self-publishing, and I have spring and summer openings! My services are all listed here. alisonweisseditorial.com/services Please reach out with any questions.

You’ve got the story, the voice, the vision. But what about the business side of things? How do publishers decide if your book is worth the investment? Let’s talk it through—no spreadsheets required (well… maybe one) w/ Alison: www.athomeauthor.com/service-page... #publishingprocess #picturebooks
