Not only is it Saturday, it’s Saturday NIGHT!
I should NOT be in your inbox.

Hello, everyone!
There is no Tuesday Debut scheduled for today, but that works out just fine because it gives us a whole post to devote to the winners of the prizes so generously offered by the 5 members of Picture Book Junction ’23 who visited us last week.
And what fantastic prizes they are!

Welcome to Perfect Picture Book Friday, Everyone!
It’s been a very busy week, so I’ll get right to today’s book without any chit chat.
(Shocking, I know, but yes, it really is me – I have not been taken over by aliens 😊)
Today is the perfect Friday for this Perfect Picture Book about Martin Luther King Jr.’s I Have A Dream Speech since we will celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday.

Welcome to the first Tuesday Debut of 2023, everyone!
We have a very interesting book journey to share today! Although Tuesday Debut is for picture books, this is a book that started as a picture book and then went off in another direction and I wanted to share it because I think it’s important for us as writers to be open-minded about our work. Sometimes a book we envision one way might work very well another way! Today’s book started out as a picture book manuscript but ended up being published as a graphic novel. Amazing, right? And maybe something to think about if you’ve got a picture book manuscript that isn’t quite working as a picture book! So without further ado, please help me welcome Mindy Hudon and her no-longer-a-picture-book graphic novel, Kodi’s Adventures: How I Learned to Defeat the Time Snatcher!

Happy New Year, Everyone!

“Oh my fur and whiskers! I’m late, I’m late, I’m late!“
Okay. It was really the White Rabbit who said that first, but it is very true for me, too, so let’s just go with it!
Due to the fact that it is December 20, and we have 15 finalists because there are 15 fabulous and generously donated prizes, and the Holiday Contest entries are a bit longer than the Halloweensie ones, we will skip all the joking around and get straight to the finalists!
