About Naomi

Hello! My name is Naomi Krueger and I’m a writer and editor from Minnesota. I work in my dream job as a senior acquisitions editor for Beaming Books, a children’s book publishing company in Minneapolis. I get to work with amazing authors and illustrators to make picture books and other fun and meaningful books for children.

I live just outside of Saint Paul with my husband and two little boys. In the cracks of time between parenting and working full time, I enjoy gardening, reading poetry, and learning new hobbies.

Where to follow my work online:

Substack: Ordinary Time is a newsletter making meaning of the mundane. I write reflections on ordinary life and the beauty found in slowing down.

Threads: Posting about publishing, kidlit, ordinary life, and current events.

Twitter: Posting about publishing, kidlit, ordinary life, and current events. (trying to be less here, and more elsewhere)

Instagram: I post updates about books I’ve edited and re-share other posts to my stories. I mainly lurk and follow kidlit authors and illustrators!
