Thank you!!! 🥰

Thank you!

I’m thrilled to announce that Trex is a Sunshine State Young Reader Award nominee for 2025-26! ☀️

What I love most about state lists is that they’re selected directly by teachers, librarians, and students, and this one is particularly special coming from my home state. What a tremendous honor! 🥰

Two of my favorites in the same place!! Love to see it, but it’s unfair that I wasn’t there too.

It starts a little slow but once it picks up it’s soooooo good. It’s nerdy and beautiful.

Shout out to @christynewrites.bsky.social and her new book The Curse of the Dead Man's Diamond. My daughter and I loved this! So fun and spooky and unpredictable. And great for lovers of classical music, too. #kidlit #middlegrade

Thank you! 😊

First of all, thank you! 🥰 They make great re-gifts! 😊

Congrats on your upcoming book! This was my merch for my first book, which includes the usual (bookmarks, stickers). But my favorite were the prologues I wrote and sewed as a pre-order incentive… took forever but they were popular

and last thing, if they have a favorite author, you can typically find signed copies of their books if you check their website/socials (that’s not merch but my 10yo loves signed/personalized items)

I also have a custom character plush that my husband commissioned from an etsy seller and it’s my favorite thing ever

Crushed it. See you next week!

Thankfully our Krispy Kreme is close but not that close

It’s so much fun. Sometimes the noises and shiny lights are all that keep me at the computer.

Yep, I wrote for two hours and had hot tea the entire time
