Hello everyone!

First, I want to thank all of you loyal subscribers who have stayed with us
even after we stopped publication of Hedgehopping. And, I hope you have all
been enjoying Kristi's newsletters as much as I have. Kristi and the
Institute of Children's Literature have a lot to offer beginning children's
writers.

Now, on to my news. I am writing to let you know that I'm back and have a
new site for children's writers called Children's Writers, Ink!

http://www.ChildrensWritersInk.com

I am really excited about this opportunity to get back in the swing of things
and hope you will come on over and see what I've been up to. And, if you
like what you see while you are there, please sign up for the free update
newsletter. I send out a weekly update to let everyone know what's new on
site so no one misses anything.

Below you will find this week's update. Please come on over to Children's
Writers, Ink! and let me know what you think while you are there.

Thanks!

Hello Everyone! And, welcome to all the newcomers out there!

This week at Children's Writers, Ink! you will find two new articles, both by
Laura Backes, publisher of Children's Book Insider.

In Editing Secrets, Laura shares some tips on the sometimes stressful process
of revisions, offering ways to make editing less painful and more productive.

In A Look At Current Trends, Laura tells us what's popular right now in the
world of children's books and gives us some insight into what we should be
writing if we want to take advantage of the current trends.

We've also added a few new links, including one to the Writer's Digest 101
Best Web Sites For Writers. Again this year Writer's Digest has chosen "the
Web's hottest, most useful writing sites." It's always fun to see who they
have picked and why.

So, come on over to Children's Writers, Ink! and see what we've been up to.
See you there!
