The 2010 edition of CWIM was 448 pages long–more than double the size of the first issue of the writing resource in 1989. Besides her useful blog, you can follow Pope on Twitter.

Here’s a brief note on her blog: “This is a tough post to write. I’m officially announcing that as of April 30th I’ll no longer be editor of Children’s Writer’s & Illustrator’s Market. For a number of reasons I’ve decided it’s time for me to leave my job at F+W Media after more than 18 years.
