Just an FYI: my schedule will be a bit tight in the next couple of months. Free-tique rounds will be few, I imagine. If I do hold a round, I’ll probaby do something like Traffic Cop or RLGL. I know many of you enjoyed that the last time. If you like to be notified of a round in advance by email, you may subscribe to my free-tique list.

Less free-tiques rounds? You’re going to let me starve?!

I just finished another chunk of work. I’m taking a break and Snoop is taking over. Read the complete rules.
Have a great Tuesday, everyone.
It’s Friday. It’s Friday!
And Snoop knows how people love to do NOTHING on Fridays. Except write to Snoop.
So in an unprecedented move, Today’s Office Hours will be held from 11AM – 5PM. CST
Yes, that’s right, folks, 11AM – 5PM.
However, because the window is so long, YOU MUST KEEP YOUR QUESTIONS SPECIFIC.

Slatta shared this with me this morning and I just had to blog about it. Snoop could be related to “Buns” in this video. What do you think? Enjoy!

Snoop is in the office to take your questions. If you can’t remember how this goes….you may ask Snoop any question (about children’s fiction writing) between 11AM CST and 1PM CST.
Only one question at a time. Please paste any sample work, if necessary, in your email to SNOOP AT CYNTHEALIU DOT COM.
For more details, see OFFICE HOURS rules.

The doctor is in.

A fellow tiquee asked Snoop for help on a manuscript title based on a query letter synopsis. As Tamarak and Snoop’s agent know, Snoop really really stinks at titling. So without further ado, can anyone help this writer with a title?

You might have heard there’s a new free-tique round called OFFICE HOURS. Here are the guidelines to participate…
1) You may only ask one question at a time….Be as specific as possible. You can not ask another question until your first one is answered.
2) PASTE your children’s fiction sample in an email.

I’m starting something new this year. I’m calling it “OFFICE HOURS”. Here’s the concept. Doctor Snoop will sit behind the computer to answer questions from his patients. Your session with Snoop will be private. You may email or chat with Snoop to communicate (or both!).
Soooo, did ya hear? Put your paws together for Cynthia Lord. A Newbery Honor for RULES. A Schneider Family Book Award. Double whoopee!
I can only hope I have more in common with this talented woman than just my initials. Cindy, donate some of your talent to me–puh-lease?!!!
Woohoo!

Do I get to wear Cindy’s Newbery sticker? Across the chest, like a badge–that would be turr-iffic!
