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!
