I know I said I would post every Tuesday to let you all know about upcoming author/illustrator events for the week, but this week it looks like there weren’t any in the Houston area. I didn’t have any other news at the time, but I do now.
Drumroll please…
My lovely and talented critique partner, VARSHA BAJAJ, has just signed with Jill Corcoran and Ronnie Herman of the Herman Agency.
Varsha is the author of How Many Kisses Do You Want Tonight? and T is for Taj Mahal: An India Alphabet Book (Sleeping Bear Press, Spring 2011). She is currently working on more picture books as well as Middle Grade and Young Adult novels.
Congratulations, Varsha!
Earlier this year, another of our critique partners, MARTY GRAHAM, signed with Jennifer Mattson of the Andrea Brown Agency, and a third member of our group, the esteemed KATHY DUVAL, is represented by Erin Murphy. I am so fortunate to be in a critique group with these wonderful writers, as well as our other two members, novelist Russell Sanders and picture book writer Linda Jackson.
I think 2011 is going to be a good year for our group!
