The downside of the conference work, though, is that between that and my daily writing--oh, and that whole day job thing--there's not a lot of time left for chasing down the industry news. Not if I still want time to read books, which of course I do. #kidlitchat
Anybody know if SavvyAuthors still does their pitchfests? I did those for a few years, then took a break to try to prevent over-exposure with their usual cast of agents. Got a few requests through them, though. #kidlitchat

It's tough. You're supposed to follow everything in the industry, network, read all the latest books plus know the classics, write constantly, market endlessly, experience life, and still maintain a bit of sanity and support yourself and your family. A great info sourcse is gold. #kidlitchat

Nice to be back with #kidlitchat after missing for conference planning stuff last week--and again next week.
Hi, #kidlitchat friends! It's great to be able to join this week.
I haven't done an online pitchfest for a while, but I always have at least a logline-style pitch and a query pitch.
Feels like early summer here, when it should still be cold and potentially snowy. Concerned about water this summer.

Taking a break from prepping for our March Ahead event this weekend. A full day with five small publishers, Friday online and Saturday in person. wifyr.com for info.

I get the newsletter from QueryManager, which helps me track agent movement. I also hear some publishing news through conference connections. But I feel a bit less in touch than a couple years ago. #kidlitchat
