Books NOT to read this summer . . . www.npr.org/2025/05/20/n...

Just found out my mother-in-law bought the same dress I did to wear to a family wedding this summer. How's your day going?

Need an excuse to buy more books? Now you have one! Saturday is Indie Bookstore Day! Show your favorite indie some love.

- Submitted a PB to an editor! - Signed up for a pitch challenge - Gathering info for my next round of agent queries *trying to keep the momentum going despite life*

When the coffee machine breaks before you’ve even made the first cup. 😡😭

My favorite genres to write in: 1. Mailman who seems to have more teeth every time you see him. 2. Overly dramatic animal memoir. 3. Texture desensitization via food fight.

This book has been running on replay, both in my mind and in my hands, for the past few days. Stunning!

Sometimes you’ve gotta refill your creativity bucket. Thanks Orlando!

Jolene finally gets a chance to see a baseball game in person, but clouds gather and threaten her big night. “That’s not fair!” Her tears mingle with raindrops. But when Jolene dries her eyes and pays attention to the fans, she discovers that there is magic in a rain delay. #QuestPit #picturebook

Eli is in the hospital for what seems like the one millionth time. With a lung infection, fading friendships, and a bratty little brother, he is maxed out. But when his favorite nurse is bitten by a vampire, Eli must work with two other chronically ill friends to save her. #QuestPit #MG #horror

If anyone needs me, I'll be stalking BlueSky for MSWL Day.

Love seeing friends and meeting new ones! #scbwiNY25

Had a blast at Ellen’s and then walking around the evening before #scbwiconference. @sarahmead.bsky.social

Here we go Year 4!!! Last year I wrote 12 new manuscripts and revised 14! 🔥🔥🔥

When your teeth are chattering, it’s a sign you need to get more books from the library to curl up with.

Good morning. We are open. 📖☕️

I am looking for deep dive craft books for MG and YA. Here are the writing books I read last year.

I'll take it!
