Market Books Tour Kickoff--TOMORROW!...

If you're in the area tomorrow, be sure to stop by Joseph-Beth's Cincinnati location at 7 p.m. for the kickoff to our Market Books Editors (Tiny Part of the) World Tour. This event is not limited to those interested in children's writing and publishing (my people)--the lineup also includes Lauren Mosko, editor of Novel & Short Story Writer's Market; Robert Brewer, editor of Writer's Market and writersmarket.com; and Nancy Breen, editor of Poet's Market.

Our event will begin with a panel discussion led by Greg the Publicity Dude. He'll ask us intelligent, probing questions related to our areas of expertise. (So he says--he won't tell us the questions in advance. We'll have lots of big, spontaneous fun!) Then we'll open it up to questions from the crowd, which are generally good and interesting (besides the guy who wants to explain his life story for 20 minutes and ask what he should do to get it published even though he's never written a work--that guy makes me tired. Oh--I'm pretty sure he can't make it tomorrow.)

So come! Please come! It's free. Our new book covers look so pretty when they're all on a table together. And we're all nice and knowledgeable editors. And after our event, you can browse your favorite sections of the store (you'll find me in literature, children's books, YA and the magazine rack--look there first).
