We are leaving this infernal app. The fate of #canlitpit is up in the air. We may attempt a Discord based event like #dvpit is doing, or we may try something else. It will depend on what the editors prefer. Keep an eye on our website for updates. There will be no 2023 event. πŸ‘‹

With the most recent changes taken into account, it has become clear that X/Twitter is not the right platform for holding a fun, safe, and accessible pitch event like #canlitpit. There will be no canlitpit event in 2023. We will be exploring other sm for a possible 2024 reboot.

This thread is GOLDEN! 🌟
1/ Saturday Thread. I’m proposing a reality show featuring aspiring novelists. A writer’s existence is full of drama. From constant rejection, to self doubt, to research history filled with skullduggery, writers are the perfect TV contestant. Especially #mysterywriters πŸ•΅οΈ

Mailchimp has reduced the number of contacts allowed on their free account level from 2000 to 500. This is extremely damaging to nonprofit organizations and social enterprises like us. How are we supposed to promote events and programs that support those who rely on us?

We have four respondents to the Kidlit Questionnaire so far. We can't wait to dive in and read them!
We're starting a series called Kidlit Questionnaire asking authors and/or illustrators about their experiences writing, illustrating, revising, querying, and publishing. The questionnaire can be found here: forms.gle/h9SGPNYuHWjedVGt7. Responses will be posted regularly on our site.
