May Childlit Book Releases

Promoting new children's books during the pandemic hit a number of happy buttons for me. 

• I love a sense of mission
• I love a little obsession
• I love that my blog stats have gone up over the period that I've been doing this

This is hugely time consuming, though. So next month, to try to carry on while making a little more time, I'm going to drop the publisher names from the book listings. Getting the book title and author names out will help the publishers, anyway.

Hmm. Maybe this situation could become a Time Management Tuesday post.
