Hello @everyone, we will have big news soon, but before that we need your feedback. An editor has asked if we could archive the pitches for a year after the pitch event. Some of you might be uncomfortable with that and others might like it, so please "like" the comment below that best fits you.
Artists! I am looking for a Jewish illustrator for a middle-grade project focusing on Jewish history, practice, and culture. If your style feels fun, MG-appropriate, and both editorial & narrative, please drop a link or DM! (And editor & agent friends, if you have someone to rec, it's appreciated!)
Congrats Ken! @rabbleboy.bsky.social
