I hope to cross post in the future but, since March, I've been writing about and celebrating children's books (mostly middle grade) on the Barnes & Noble Kids blog. It's been super fun to interview authors, celebrate new books with review-like posts, and create lists of books to recommend to young readers and their parents and teachers.
If you want to follow along, the link is here . The blog features picture books, chapter books, and middle grade. I most recently read and loved Corey Ann Haydu's beautiful book Rules for Stealing Stars.
I'm also editing YA and middle grade book reviews for Cleaver Magazine. There, we feature children's books from small and independent presses. I've been finding some incredible hidden gems out there. Follow along here.
For those of you who are interested in writing formal children's book reviews for Cleaver Magazine, I'd love to work with you. While we do tend to have more reviewers than books to review, I would still love to add you to our list of reviewers. If you're interested, let me know in the comments!
Congrats on the writing gigs!
ReplyDeleteYay for you! I knew about your B&N columns but not about editing for Cleaver. I thought Cleaver published mostly poetry and short fiction. Didn't realize they publish book reviews too. That's great!
ReplyDeleteI think you mentioned these freelance jobs to me, but congratulations once again! It sounds like you are excited and happy about both of these, and they are great credentials to add to your writer bio!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you have been able to find a balance between mommy and writer with all these freelance gigs. Keep me in mind if you hear of any editing gigs. I'm really enjoying the editing I'm doing, but it's not enough to feed a family of 12. (lol)
