Howdy, friends. Well, I’ve barely recovered from NCTE 2025, haha, and it’s time to think about NCTE 2026! I just wanted to throw out the idea that I’d love to be on a poetry proposal or two for next year. I have a picture book poetry collection coming out from Astra/Wordsong next summer: Meet the Mighty Helpers! If you’re putting together a proposal around poetry, writing process, or disabilities, I’d love to hear from you!
And for some great poetry, don’t miss the Poetry Friday Roundup with the one and only Linda Mitchell!
