Cover reveal for upcoming @NancyTandon book & maybe the final copy will have glowing parts like its predecessor. Pre-order now! (Photo taken at 2025 @TXLA annual conference; maybe you’ll have “Haunting” at the 2026 event?) @SSEdLib #AladdinBooks

For over a year, I’ve run a middle-grade book club (for kids aged 10 to 12) at my local indie bookstore. Here are ten observations about their reading preferences that might be helpful to children’s book professionals in some small way. 🧵

A giant list of spot-on advice for the publishing journey. 💫
6 Jun 2024
10 years ago I was still stuck in the query trenches (lost & confused). Here’s a few things I’ve learned about writing/publishing in the past decade 🧵
1. Resilience. Rejection is part of the job. It gets easier. It’s not that your work isn’t good it’s that it isn’t a good fit.
