You guys....my picture book is among these 10 winners! And like my little furry protagonist, I am scurrying around like mad to get it properly polished up to query to this amazing agent. Wish me luck!!
The results are in for Pitch-a-Palooza ‘25 judge Kelly Dyksterhouse, agent at Tobias Literary! Out of 82 entries, she LIKED a 10 across #YA, #MG, #PB and #GN categories. Congrats to all, and don’t forget that we have 5 judges left to respond so there’s more to come! @scbwi
