I wanted to take a moment to welcome a new writer to the M&O family: welcome aboard Suzanne Warr (http://www.suzannewarr.com./)!!!

Suzanne caught my eye with a funny, middle grade adventure story about ninja chickens---honestly, she had me at ninja chickens (love!) and when I could see how talented of a writer she was on top of that it was a no brainer. Yay!

Hi everyone! I hope you're enjoying Summer so far and keeping cool.

Check out Adventures in YA & Children's Publishing's feature: Seven Agents Talk About the Most Common Submission Mistakes where I am one of the agents giving insight.

It's a wonderful blog that has many great articles and resources for writers. I'd recommend following them!
