Yahoo! No A or E likes yet, but IT STARTS WITH A CIRCLE just earned a #sunwritefun AMA prize! Also this: "This is very well written. Your rhyme & meter are so strong. I love that it's a nonfiction piece written in rhyme. It combines the whimsy of poetry w/the knowledge building of nonfiction."

Thank you. Ok, an another note. I just got off a zoom with a friend who has a picture book out next year. Did you have a book debut group for yours? How did you find one?

Wow-never imagined I'd see an agent have to write that! I thought not using AI was a given/writers know better. That got me thinking, on a scale of spellcheck (1) to full MS (100), how much AI assistance is OK? FYI for me to tell students, not because I use AI for MSs. What would be the fun in that?
