My daughter is the most empathetic person. She defends every underdog. Gets upset when someone’s being teased—even if it’s a joke on TV. She scolds her dad for being snarky. She feels everything. Today, she got an award for empathy. Can’t be more proud. #ParentSky

5 years ago, I had an agent and big dreams but zero book deals. After 150+ rejections, I parted ways with my agent & signed with a small press. The duology they said would “die on sub”? Now it’s a 6-book deal. Rejection isn’t the end. Keep going. #WritingCommunity

My first #library was the then #GarretPark Maryland one, which is on the right in this photo. It was closed when #Kensington Park Library was built. Too bad, because it's on a busy street and hard to walk to. I can still remember how the floors creaked in the old library!

A librarian in Hollywood handed me my first King book at the age of 7 and told me not to tell anyone. She also turned a blind eye to me forging my library card application due to lack of parents, anywhere. I was a librarian for a short while. They rock.
