I got some exciting news last night! #PBRisingStars #kidlit

Excited to see My Heart Remembers on the #PBParty 2025 Honorable Mentions list!

Giving #PBRisingStars a try- fingers crossed!

Congratulations to all the #PBparty finalists & best of luck to you next week! 🎉

The #PBParty 2025 contest now has 59 agents & editors for the showcase. Wahooooo! We're hosting a PBParty Prep Zoom to go through the Google entry forms in detail, share tips & make sure all questions are answered. I added the Zoom link here: mindyalyseweiss.com/2025-pbparty...

I saw this online today and it made me laugh! #kidlit

Do you want to write books for children? 🧒📚👧 I have a FREE (extensive but not exhaustive) list of resources available on my website under the "Resources for Writers" tab. Books, orgs, podcasts, webinars, challenges & more! www.heatherpiercestigall.com/resources-fo... #kidlitcommunity

Case in point - @andreabrownlit.bsky.social recently embraced Bluesky, and has 1320 followers as of my post. But their recent announcement of their 2nd Chance Inbox already has 120 engagements. And those are from REAL people, relevant to their interests. bsky.app/profile/andr...

Hi! I’m a friendly #KidLit agent. In 15 minutes (at 6pm Eastern) I’m going to do a mini impromptu AMA session just so I can see what happens. This is not a time to pitch your book to me — but if you have questions about agent stuff, books, publishing — maybe I can help! Use the hashtag #AskAgent 😃

Reminder (esp for those who have attended #kidlitchat): Wed.Jan.24, 2024, I'm hosting Bluesky's first #KidLitAMA ("Ask Me Anything"), My first guest is picture book author/illus @charlenedraws.bsky.social! Free, publicly viewable, anyone on Bluesky can post Qs. Details: debbieohi.com/kidlitama/
