Congratulations, Lauren LeBlanc! Your manuscript sounds wonderful. My son’s older know but he sure went through a mighty superhero stage. I hope your manuscript gets picked up soon!
Fantastic news Lauren!!
Congrats Lauren!!
Kim & Co: thanks for all your work on Fall Philly; looks great!! Am wondering: there aren’t too many agents that seem to rep a lot of PBs — do you have a list of the craft session topics yet? Just want to make sure that they will be relevant for PB-focussed authors. Thanks!!
Hey Anna, Elizabeth Kann and Jennifer Hansen Rolli will both present PB themed sessions, and all the panels have a fantastic representation for PBs as well. The schedule will be posted soon!
