Fightin’ Bookworm Claudia McAdam Sells Her 13th Book from a CBI Tip!
Jan 1st, 2010 | By Jon Bard | Category: Get The Latest Issue of Children's Book Insider!
It’s the kind of e-mail we love to get:
I need to credit Children’s Book Insider with leading to the sale of my 13th book, Riddle at the Rodeo, which is due out this April from Soto Publishing. Last year you ran a piece about Soto Publishing’s call for middle grade novels–a call which I answered with my submission. And the rest, as they say, is (a very happy) history.
So, I write today as an encouragement for all children’s writers– published or yet-to-be-published. A subscription to CBI yields numerous benefits, from expert advice on all aspects of the craft to actually leading to a work’s publication. Thank you!
Thanks Claudia — glad we could help! And for everyone else, let this be yet another reminder that you CAN build a successful children’s writing career with persistence, hard work, a great attitude — and a little help from your buddies at CBIClubhouse.com! 
Head over to http://claudiamcadam.com and give Claudia a well-deserved pat on the back!

. I have 2 questions at this point: How many submissions when you're just starting out (w/o) an agent is a good number? And when there are more than a few 'Editor' postions listed (senior, executive, etc.), who do you address your material to? Great stuff on this site. Articles and chat alike! Thanks and good luck to all.
