#JoyPit is over and I can finally breathe.
A Couple months back I decided on a whim to start #JoyPit event, just for fun, because I didn’t find one for fun books. I’d some encouraging folks and some disbelieving ones who didn’t have faith in participation in a new pitch event.

In 1977, the only openly gay active player in history, Glenn Burke, & his teammate, Dusty Baker, mark a season’s 30th home run with the 1st ever 'high five,' igniting a global phenomenon; HANDS IN THE AIR tells the story of this universal gesture.

Just went on a #KidLitPit and #JoyPit liking spree. Sorry it took so long (crazy busy day). Looking forward to a full inbox tomorrow!

#WritingCommunity I've seen a lot of posts about people upset with the results of #joypit and #kidlitpit . I wanted to share my first pitch ever (no likes) vs. this new one. Nothing in my writing/MS has changed drastically between these two pitches. My story is the same. 🧵

I hope every writer who did #KidLitPit and #JoyPit today feels like the BUTTERIEST BISCUT AT CRACKER BARREL. The creative space to take up matters. Likes, or no likes. Never stop believing in your stories. 💛

Ali Hazelwood x WHAT'S YOUR NUMBER?

When a data scientist creates an algorithm to find the perfect boyfriend, she thinks she has life all figured out—until she falls for her DTF wingman instead. But should she follow her heart or follow the numbers?

OMG, a full request already from #KidLitPit #JoyPit . I'm going to explode from all the love and support. #WritingCommunity thank you thank you thank you! 😍🥹😍

THE LOVE HYPOTHESIS x Talia Hibbert

What does a prickly data scientist do when looking for a boyfriend? Create a love algorithm, of course. Then date the 'right' men and not fall for her low-scoring DTF wingman when he catches feelings. Easy, right?

Thank you to the amazing #WritingCommunity for all the support today! I did my best to support everyone back. So happy to make such great new friends! Keep in touch!
