The intention behind uGROnews on Substack intends to raise awareness about kidlit creatives by talking with authors and illustrators about their books and sharing their craft know-how.
My newsletter on Substack shares resources, book release news, ideas, sneak peeks, cover reveals, special offers, teacher guides, book reviews, thoughts on writing, inspirations, and insights into kidlit. (But not all at once, of course!)
Join me at the SCBWI-Wisconsin events.
