My family treated ourselves to a viewing of Heretic this evening. An absolute Christmas gift of a movie.

Hello, Bluesky! πŸ‘‹ I'm brand new here. Any advice on how to grow a following? I'm an Oklahoma author of spooky things (kidlit at the moment, but I have adult work up my sleeve as well). I teach high school English and creative writing, and I love my family, my cats, and books. Let's chat!
