A little introduction. To learn more about me, my books, and the free resources I offer parents, librarians and educators, visit my website https://t.co/bfsccK6MMK.

Today, I’m chatting with indie kidlit author, marketing expert, and mental health advocate, Jennifer Nestor. We’ll be diving into the ins and outs of self-publishing, marketing, and how to plan author visits and events. https://t.co/W0hT1wtH65

Publishing is a marathon, not a sprint. My first year as a literary agent, I sold ONE book to a publisher. My second, ELEVEN (and to a Big Five!) One of those is a six-book series! And I have another pending stand-alone title. #WritingCommunity

It’s my extreme pleasure to at long last PUBLICLY announce the official 2026 Feature Interview guest list. Here they are, folks! These twelve creators have amazing stories to tell… and I can’t wait to share them with all of you!

Book Page Starred Review?! Bah! 🤩 https://t.co/BOpYPQ7fwB

Yesterday marked one week since signing, and we are ALREADY on the go! Am I dreaming? Someone pinch me. I AM OFFICIALLY OUT ON SUBMISSION WITH MY FIRST MANUSCRIPT. AHHH!

Oh, don't mind me over here, just bubbling over the top with crazy levels of excitement. Shoutout to my amazing go-getter agent @stephaniecardel, who has been on the move since day ONE with strategy, game plan, & follow-through. To be perfectly honest, I'm kind of awestruck.

Today’s the day of my local bookstore author event at City Square Books and Music in Hendersonville TN and I’m feeling ALL the feels! So excited to come out and say hello to little readers! I’ll be signing copies of my book ADHD and Me from 10-2. #localauthor #booksigning

I'm officially on the Lighthouse Literary website. Eek! So exciting! #lighthouseliterary #publishing #writingcommunity #newagent Thanks for sharing this, Stephanie! @StephanieCardel https://t.co/mxL4ATwJTu

Stephanie @StephanieCardel has been so transparent and positive while balancing the realities of publishing, and I'm overjoyed to begin our journey together.

It's been a very long road, and the journey is far from over, but I'm grateful to be at the next step. I'm thrilled to announce that as of today, I am officially represented by Stephanie Cardel of Lighthouse Literary.
