Hi from Arizona, kidlit people! Yes, definitely posting less on social media these days! Twitter used to be the best for writers. Haven't found a substitute. #kidlitchat.

I got my second agent through #dvpit in 2019! We had a nice 5 year run together. Now I'm looking for new rep, so I'll be pitching a few manuscripts tomorrow! Good luck to everyone participating.
