Hello all! I've a special thing to ask you. Remember last school year when I worked in my small hometown school with K-6 and they hadn't had a librarian in over a decade and all they wanted were "books that aren't broken" so together we made a year of FREAKING MAGIC for them?


🤓🚨 I am on Substack writing about small press publishing life, marketing children’s books, and more with my co-publisher Suhani Parikh. Calling indie #kidlitauthors and #smallpress pubs to join us. #community @_MMBooks @YaliBooks sampari.substack.com/p/audience-vs-…
