Can't wait for this book to launch in May. Trivia: the book is about mapping and navigation and I am TERRIBLE at both.

I seem to remember there was a tool/website one could use to schedule Bluesky posts...can someone nudge my forgetful brain?... @debbieohi.com @boringstorybook.com help? #kidlit #kidlitchat

Marty is an AMAZING virtual visit-or ;-)

Thanks to the Canada Council for the Arts and the Public Lending Rights Comission for supporting Canadian books in Canadian libraries. If you are a book creator, apply to PLR publiclendingright.ca. Tag a public library. I'll start: @vancouverlibrary.bsky.social @hfxpublib.bsky.social 🍁 #kidlit

My #FreedomToReadWeek (February 23 – March 1) opinion...just because you don't agree with a book doesn't mean others shouldn't have the right to read it.

It was great to chat with so many #kidlit people.

I'm-not-going-to-write-this book title... "No dessert on Mondays" Possibly inspired by real life 😉

I wonder @kirsten-marion.bsky.social is your back-of-book lie that you've climbed Mount Kilimanjaro? *curious*

I'm counting the days until this book launches. And the irony is it's on Gladys West who did the math which modern day GPS is based off of...and I'm profoundly bad at directions. lol.

Thank you to @katemessner.com for setting up the #WorldReadAloudDay author sign up this year. This Canadian #kidlit author just presented (virtually) to a school in NY.

Baking du jour: apple cinnamon muffins with protien powder

Reminder #kidlit friends that the talented @karenkrossing.bsky.social has a #picturebook workshop coming up in March...you should register 😉

Because reading educates, entertains, and offers moments of escape

Great shot of @debbieohi.com

Made my first peach cobbler...using the "dump cake" method. 4 ingredients. Canned peaches, sprinkle of cinnamon, cake mix, and butter. No stirring. Easy recipe! 👍
