Sun vs. Snow Returns: A Query Contest!

Hey everyone!

The end of January means that it's time to break the dreary winter monotony with a fun contest for querying writers!

Michelle Hauck and Amy Trueblood are once again hosting the super fun Sun vs. Snow contest, which allows a group of selected writers a chance to revise their query and first page with mentors before their entries are seen by agents! (One of the terrific agents participating this year is my very own, Christa Heschke!)

I'm mentoring on Team Snow, which means I'll be working one-on-one with three YA/MG writers to polish their queries and first pages. I can't wait! Check out my bio, along with the other members of Team Snow, on Michelle's blog right here, then get ready to submit your entry! Michelle makes her picks for Team Snow on January 26th.

GOOD LUCK!

New Website!

Hey all!

While this will continue to be my personal blog where I post about writing and my doggies, I'm pleased to announce that I've now also got a professional author website!

Check it out here. The new site (as well as this one) will feature book news and other such fun things!

Staying Positive in the New Year

Hey everyone,

HAPPY NEW YEAR! If you're looking for inspiration to stay positive with your writing in 2015, or any time really, consider checking out my post on Michelle Huack's blog. I'm over there today talking about the highs and lows of being on submission, and how good things happen when you least expect them (and work really hard)!

So, if you want something to read this morning, check out the post here:

Hope everyone had a fun New Year's Eve, and I can't wait to read more literary success stories as the year unfolds!
