So I got an email from these guys (oddly enough I thought none of my books were even eligible for the Anthropic thing).

ANYWAY it sounded sus and I guess IT IS so if you get a ClaimsHero email just like… bin it already

Most of our podcast guests are published authors and illustrators, but what about the #writers putting in the work whose names haven't yet appeared on a #picturebook cover?

Today, we get to showcase a mid-journey writer—Caitlin Binder-Markey!

Friday #kidlit recap: I did not, in fact, get to my newsletter or my long-neglected sketchbook. I did, however, hustle on final book art - getting really close to done. How about you?

I've dropped a new blog post on my website about my journeys with MY LIFE AS AN ASTHMANAUT during back-to-school season, which includes my TV appearance on the now-canceled Fox 8 News Now show. The newsletter version will be sent out soon! #kidlit #picturebooks

'Watch out
The Wicked Witch is about!'

In “Kazoo Klassifieds” our young readers can find themselves in print, & remember how much they’re loved.

Since we’re ad-free, these classifieds help in covering our printing costs (of course) but they’ve become such a beloved feature, too.

A lovely surprise today! ❤️ A literary agent sent me a wonderfully thoughtful rejection for Six, They Said, praising its “compelling premise”, emotional resonance and my “beautiful writing”. She also offered some genuinely useful feedback. Sometimes a rejection can be encouraging! #KidLit #AmQuerying
