We're on most of the social media outlets, so feel free to reach out and touch us.
Here's where you can find me (Michelle Matthews-Calloway):

A couple of years ago when I started marketing my first novel, Guardian Spirit my publicist gave me a list of “must do’s”: I must set-up a Facebook page. Not just one but two, one for my personal use and one to use strictly as an author page. Not just set the pages up but try and attract hundreds...

So I've had a history of using Twitter solely as my rant against our Bosch dishwasher. To be honest, I have no idea what other people use it for.

Now it turns out I need it to restore my account. They send you a text. Argh. It took me two years to get 600 followers and now I...

If you find it as difficult to get an agent as it is to reach an editor/publisher (and it seems to be) here is a list of many agents on Twitter.
Now, don't put yourself forward to them via a tweet - that's a fool's errand. But read their tweets and find out the type of books they tend to represent...

Last night, I read to my son Laura Numeroff's book, "If You Take A Mouse To The Movies". We both love this book but I imagine for different reasons. We mutually enjoy the Christmas theme. But while my son loves the colorful illustrations and cute mouse, I appreciate the mouse's...
