CYBILS Time!

October 5, 2011 By Laura

It's October, and you know what that means. What? You don't?

It's CYBILS time, people! Time to nominate your favorite children's/young adult books, e-books, and book apps for a CYBILS award. Go here to read about the CYBILS and nominate books (one nominee per genre, and a book can only be nominated once). You have from now until October 15, when nominations close. Goodreads is going to be so handy for me! I will look through at my 4- and 5-star books I've read this past year and get nominating today.

I'm going to be a Poetry judge, and this will be my third (non-consecutive) year of doing it. This year, I'll be a Round Two judge, which will be a new experience for me. Check out this great Poetry judges' list! Please note that Jone Rush MacCulloch is not only a Round One judge, but she is also the Poetry Overlord. Dang. I want that title:>)

JANUARY NEWS

I loved the holidays! And I'm so glad they're over. A quiet, snowy January is just what I need. This month, I'm working on two board book manuscripts, and I'm making materials to go with my 3 spring 2023 books.

I'm also busy prepping for upcoming author visits and setting my goals and priorities for 2023. Wishing you a lovely start to your own new year!
