POV you are sitting in my office admiring the peach and cherry blossom decals J. got me 🍑🌸🥰 (it only took me 6 months to actually put them up)

2022 is a year I'll never forget.

20 years ago, I looked at the stars and told myself I'd be a published author. Five books, and hundreds of rejections later, my dream is finally becoming a reality.

Thank you, Heather Cashman (open to queries) @jrheller87 and Peachtree Teen for making it happen.

J. I felt like I was reading my own MSWL for a second! 😂

J. Writer / illustrator

I have a picture book series and middle grade sci-fi/comedy action adventure.

Second we’re thrilled to announce that Jonah Heller, aka J., will be part of the #SCBWImidsouth19 off-site faculty as well. Jonah is the assistant editor at Peachtree Publishing Company in Atlanta. He will conduct written critiques and also be our #PictureBook contest judge.

@jrheller87 Mine has just winged its way to you but does it matter that I'm in Scotland? It's a picture book, written in verse, with beautiful language in the 'in-between' bits. A beautiful story about friendship and looking at your wishlist I think, ( I hope🤞 ), that you'll like it.

Have you registered for the SCBWI-MI Spring Conference?? Don't miss special guest J. who will present AND offer critiques for all genres! Haven't registered yet? Easy peasy--just click the link! See you there! web.cvent.com/event/32708896…
