#PBPitch & #MSWL on the same day makes me wish I could nestle here on Twitter and do nothing else!

I’m updating my MSWL page for when I reopen, but my biggest change is that I’m dropping adult fiction.

Brief list (will expound later)
💫Adult NF - CBA & ABA
💫PB, MG, YA - ABA

Closing submissions inbox on Friday.

#MSWL - cozy mysteries, YA or MG retellings, NF (see QM or PM for list), PB (can be author-only)

My #MSWL for PB: true rhyme w/ perfect meter; 99% of the time prefer text-only

Tip 1: You know where you expect the beats, so have others read it out loud. Listen for where they place the emphasis.

Tip 2: Don’t force the rhyme. 🤦🏼‍♀️

#MSWL
✨Cookbooks
✨Home & lifestyle
✨Retellings (YA only)
✨PB, particularly holiday

#MSWL for when I re-open Sept 1:
nonfiction business, leadership, lifestyle, cookbooks, home decor, gift books, and picture books.

Platform matters but platform is sometimes more than social media numbers.

It was a pleasure to participate in #DVpit. I’m so impressed with the professionalism of the #writingcommmunity.

With 2 upcoming conferences and current client projects to shop, I’m closing my QM on Tuesday. #MSWL still open for NF & PB until then!
