Congratulations to the 198 participants who completed the 30-ideas-in-30-days challenge! I hope the inspirational exercise you started this November will continue through December and creep into the new year. (Hmm…creeping into the New Year. Did I just get another idea?)
Three lucky grand prize winners will receive feedback from picture book agents. Each winner is encouraged to write a 30-second pitch for their five best ideas, which you will email to your assigned agent no later than December 6th. Winners, please await an email from me with further instructions. If you do not receive an email from me by the end of today, please contact me.
So without further ado…
Congratulations, Jeanne Balsam!
You’ve been paired with Ammi-Joan Paquette of Erin Murphy Literary Agency.
Hooray for Diandra Mae!
You’ve been paired with Kelly Sonnack of Andrea Brown Literary Agency, Inc.
Squee, Dana Carey!
You’ve been paired with Joanna Volpe of Nancy Coffey Literary & Media Representation.
If you didn’t win one of the grand prizes, don’t worry! There are more winners to be announced. Coming up next, winners of the manuscript critiques in a separate post.

Congratulations to the three grand prize winners. And they certainly are GRAND prizes.
And to all the rest of us winners who completed the task. To let you know that I jotted # 34 in my notebook this morning and started a story from #33.
Thanks again Tara and thanks to all the participants that shared their “secret” ideas!

Wow! Today is Sunday Dec 5 and I’m just finding out this incredible news!! I’ve been off- line for 2 days because I’ve been organizing/attending our regional conference for SCBWI France. (It went really well.) I’m sitting here in the aftermath, having coffee and I come across this news in my inbox and well, I’m speechless.
Thank you Tara! Thank you Joannne Volpe! I’m going to go take a few deep breaths now!
