Same here. RT @SWiersbitzky #litchat I never once thought to write an author I loved when I was a kid. Wish I had!

I once read that the kiss of death for a MG or YA novel is to have kids go to adults for help. Is this true? #litchat

I have some story ideas and I've wanted to explore them for younger readers. How many words is a typical MG book? #litchat
Thank you. RT @SWiersbitzky @authorwritis Connect with SCBWI. Great organization for children's writers and illustrators. #litchat
What would you suggest for a writer to get started writing MG? Is there an organization that offers education, etc.? #litchat
Hello everyone. It's been quite a while since I've been on Twitter. Glad to be here for this topic. #litchat
Great to see Alexander Solzhenitsyn's One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich on @andrewdkaufman's 10 Russian Novels to Read.... #litchat
It's been eons since I read War & Peace, but Pierre's dabbling with Freemasons has always struck with me. Strange. #litchat

Have you discussed yet Pierre's involvement with Freemasonry? #litchat

All of that history is behind Pierre gives "backstory" a new meaning. #litchat
Just now popping into #litchat. Hi, @bridgettmdavis. Is Into the Go-Slow women's fiction?

Finally some sci-fi in #litchat. I was wondering if it would ever happen. ;-)
Good question @LitChat about working so long on a book. Most people say forget the first novel that doesn't sell and move on. #litchat

Do you keep a notebook to write things you see and want to use later? Or do you have an elephant's memory? #litchat
How is short story writing different than novel writing? (Other than length.) #litchat
Alrighty. Almost on time. I see an egg is the host of today's chat. #litchat
