#BookSky The first professional review for The Tontine Caper has lots of nice things to say! 😊 Thank you, Booklist! Can't wait to share this book, with its hilarious illustrations by @mattschu.bsky.social and interactive back matter suggested by the brilliant @smorgridge.bsky.social to MG readers.

I needed something to push me to make my first post here, and a second starred review for BANNED TOGETHER is just the ticket. I am so proud of this incredible book. 🌟🌟 www.publishersweekly.com/9780823458301

Working on revisions for a MG while in the midst of home renovations/repairs and planning our daughter's wedding, and helping with family moves, and holiday traveling. And, yeah, the revision is a struggle. #kidlitchat

Cleaning the dishwasher filter was not a thing I planned to do today, but what must be done, must be done.

Congratulations to @jstremer.bsky.social! Jessica also wrote THE GREAT CARRIER REEF and LIGHTS OUT (about how to help migrating birds). She's a MUST read if you love non-fiction!

Every day for the past week I've been heartened to sign on to the @bsky.app and recognize both people I know, and others I can't wait to get to know. It's happening! One by one, we'll find each other, and together we'll rebuild our community.

Hubby just pointed out my overly-generous use of the word “we” when I list household tasks: “WE need to remember to move the garage fridge to the curb for pickup tonight.” Or,“The power-washers come tomorrow. When should WE move everything off the patio?” 🤷‍♀️ Doesn’t moral support count for anything?

Yes. This. Please make it obvious you're part of the community! And as @ljrwritenow.bsky.social says, take time to create your profile "header." Sometimes it's not clear whether to follow, leave-be, or block, and as @bluesky has opened up, I've blocked many bots, but sometimes it's not obvious.

Crave #mglit? SIX FEET BELOW ZERO: Rosie & Baker pretend their great-grandmother is still alive in order to protect their home & stay together. Humorous, quirky, & heartfelt, it explores family dynamics, stages of grief, & the bounds of friendship. holidayhouse.com/book/six-fee...

We've been without a stovetop for 2 months & using one of those single portable units that whines at an annoying decibel when, say, boiling water.This high-pitched sound disturbs our poor cat SO MUCH that he's willing to go without food until we've had our first cups of tea in the morning.

Hi! I'm probably the same as everyone else on BlueSky, the old "Tw," & Threads: Trying to find my way on social media platforms when the one I started on (Tw), has bit by bit, & now in a giant way, fallen apart. THAT was the one I liked the best. 1/3
