Last year I posted general stats for Middle Grade Verse Novels. This year, I updated those stats, and added an #infographic dedicated to just 2022 Verse Novels.

You'll also find a handy list of all the #MG Verse Novels slated to publish in 2023, and of course, the master list of 324 MG Verse Novels written published/publishing between 1990 and 2024.

Yesterday was the in-class final workshop from the #VerseNovel class from Highlight's I've been taking. Hearing each classmate read a poem, and then discussing the work was incredibly soul filling. And I'm so sad we're at the end of class!

I'm going out with specific actionable steps for my current #WIP #revisions. I'm loving how this is coming together!

Hit my goal today of making it through the Save the Cat Writes a Novel plot questions on page 75. The worksheet revealed several spots I can definitely rework, and the ideas for exactly how to fix each spot just fell right into place as I went. I'm not taking that for granted!

First day of #Yallfest was a bit rainy, but I bought a signed copy of Kwame Alexander’s new #versenovel. And today is supposed to be sunny and full of #author panels and writing friends. ❤️

Slowly finding fellow #MG #KidLit #Authors here.
Everytime I spot someone from #MGHub #MGBookChat #QuokkaCrew #Forge or another #VerseNovel author, I'm so excited.

I'm seeing #introduction posts. So, here goes!

I'm a #MiddleGrade #Kidlit #VerseNovel #author who loves #History #STEM #GFBaking and crafting dollhouse miniatures.

No cats here because: allergies😢 But I have a super cute rescue #dog.

I'm revising a historical fiction NIV set in WWI. And my young Ada Lovelace NIV is with my agent.

Ask me for verse novel, poet, or middle grade book suggestions and I will talk your ear off.

Looking forward to connecting with the writing community here!
