Here’s to your inspiration!





Looking for the latest children’s literature news? Don’t have time to scour all of the blogs out there (and we know there are a ton!), but would like to be pointed in the direction of some of the best articles and gossip?

Be sure to sign up for The Book Bugz Newsletter from Lori Calabrese Writes! The Book Bugz Newsletter flutters your way once a month and covers all of the latest children’s book buzz–everything from the latest children’s literature news, things happening throughout the Kidlitosphere, book reviews & recommendations, book giveaways, and tips for writers on writing and marketing.


Lori is so interested in what other writers and bloggers have to say. After becoming inspired from the wealth of information out there regarding children’s books and children’s literacy, she wanted to create a newsletter that not only highlights what’s happening at
Lori Calabrese Writes!, but also highlights the recent news being talked about throughout the kidlitosphere.


The subscription is FREE and subscribing is easy. Just visit the NEW!
Lori Calabrese Writes! blog and subscribe at the top right sidebar. Then we’ll be buzzing about children’s books in the November issue of The Book Bugz!


CHILDREN'S BOOK INSIDER http://www.write4kids.com/aboutcbi.html 
The Monthly Newsletter for Beginning, Intermediate and Experienced Children's Writers

Here's just a taste of what we cover:

NEW MARKETS: The first thing you'll see when you pick up CBI each month is "At Presstime," two pages of fresh and exclusive market news. We'll tell you about new imprints, changes in editorial direction, calls for submission, contests, grants and much more. We use our exclusive network of sources to provide our readers with the hottest leads. And we put it all right up front, because we know your first objective as a writer is to sell. "At Presstime" is the source to find out who's buying.

HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR WORK: We extensively cover the nuts and bolts of submitting your work, with information that will make it easy for you to take action. Our Editor Profile series brings you up close to top editors, who will tell you -- in their own words -- exactly what they're looking for and how they like to be approached. Plus, CBI's feature articles cover every aspect of the submissions process -- from formatting your manuscript all the way through signing a contract.

WRITING SECRETS: Our straightforward "how-to" pieces about writing give you the do's, don'ts and golden rules of children's literature. From picture books through young adult novels, CBI tells the secrets that can turn rejection letters into book contracts.

ADVICE FROM TOP AUTHORS: CBI brings you the advice, encouragement and wisdom of America's top children's writers, through our series of exclusive interviews. Judy Blume, Jane Yolen, R.L. Stine, Gary Paulsen, Walter Dean Myers....these are just a few of the big names that have appeared in CBI. (Apply the lessons these folks have to offer and, who knows, maybe someday we'll be interviewing you!). Plus there's so much more: legal, tax and accounting advice; emerging technologies such as Print-on-Demand and Electronic Books; multicultural and folktales; the religious marketplace...and on and on.
