Under a first-in-the-nation state law, all full- and part-time pregnant workers in New York are entitled to 20 hours of paid leave a year for prenatal care, in addition to their regular sick days. gothamist.com/news/expecting…

Expecting in NY? New prenatal leave benefits take effect with the new year.

A new state law helps ensure pregnant New Yorkers don’t miss out on paychecks when they visit the doctor.

Surprise! The FLDOE finally dropped the 23/24 statewide challenge/removal list (now that the FL supermajority is safe). The list is much longer than the 22/23 list and contains far more titles. fldoe.org/file/5574/2324-SDR…

This is how I, as an editor, connected with the agent of several of my authors!
rachel mcmillan 🇨🇦@rachkmc5 Nov 2024
my personal favourite way to find an agent when i was querying ( i am 20 trad pubbed books in as well as being an agent, for those new to following) was to look at who repped my favourite authors on PW or pub marketplace or in acknowledgments sections and start there :)
