One thing that they did not explain is all of the terms that some of the writers have been using like 7K, MG, PB I want to be able to talk with other witers and be able to understand the I. M. language that they are using. Just starting back to writing after taking a correspondence course to improve my skills as a writer.

Jones" or "Judy Moody & Stink". It's 7K in length, an outdoor sports adventure story. I have been calling it early middle grade, but I'm not sure what you actually call this sort of novel. Early middle grade? Chapter book? Easy reader? Early reader? Something else? And, given a category for it, who can I query with it? I see agents who rep MG and agents who rep PBs, but no one seems to rep that elusive genre right in between. Thanks!
