TOO PRINCESSY! Picture Book Peek 2/11/13!

This month, "the princess" is making her royal appearance once again in bookstores and libraries  everywhere when the TOO PRINCESSY! Board Book hits the shelves.

"This high-energy outing sends a clear message: sometimes the simplest toy is the best one." Publishers Weekly

"... kids will want re-reads."  
Kirkus

Now that's something to celebrate!

So  for all my writer friends out there I'm holding aTOO PRINCESSY! PICTURE BOOK PEEK
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 2013 Win a free critique of a selected picture book manuscript.  
Here's how it works:
Sign up for a critique by entering your picture book WORKING TITLE in the comment section of this blog post anytime (midnight to midnight Mountain Time) on February 11th. Titles submitted before or after February 11th will not be considered.

I'll throw all the submitted titles into a hat and pick 1 for critique.

Keep in mind:
* Manuscripts must be 1000 words or less.

* I accept only fiction.

* Please understand that I'm not an editor and will not be providing line-editing of your work. My critique will be comprised of suggestions for improving your manuscript. So please send me your most polished piece.

* The critique winner must e-mail me his/her manuscript as a Word attachment within 48 hours of the announcement . Manuscripts will be kept completely confidential. When I receive the manuscript, I'll let the author know when to expect my critique.

* As with any art form, likes and dislikes are entirely subjective. Please understand that my critiques are only one reader's/writer's opinion. It's always wise to seek feedback from a few different readers. If my ideas resonate with you, they're yours to use. If you disagree, I encourage you to compare my comments with those of other readers. But in the end, it's your book. Stay true to your vision.

I look forward to reading your work.
Jean
