#KTIllustrates, call for submission, illustration contest, illustrators, SCBWI members

It’s that time of year again! Kite Tales invites all our illustrator members to participate in our annual KTIllustrates Contest: we give you a prompt and you show us your best take.

The illustration can be in any medium, for any age range, and any genre.

call for submission, Jennifer Rawlings, Sue Alexander Grant, writing contest

by Jennifer Rawlings

I know applying for the Sue Alexander Grant is scary, but ignoring your dreams and goals is even scarier.

Not only did I not tell a single soul I was applying for the Sue Alexander Grant, I wrote an entire novel in secret. That’s right. Not even my husband knew I was writing a YA Novel—I just wanted to do the work then hope and pray someone liked it.
