I'm so lucky to know that Chloe from Scotland loves my cryptid books. She has another one headed her way, along with a bunch of silly cryptid toys and such, too. Thank you, Chloe. You are my inspiration.

'Survivor' Season 48 recap: Who went home? See who was voted out first The premiere episode of Season 48 of "Survivor" had 18 new castaways hit the beach in Fiji, all vying for the $1 million prize.

I'm not sure how it happened, but I'm now addicted to watching SURVIVOR. New season starts tonight. Now, in fact.

'SNL50' live updates: Red carpet arrivals, expected celebrity guests, former cast and more Follow live updates from SNL50: The Anniversary Celebration, featuring iconic sketches, musical performances, and appearances from former cast members and special guests.

There are six inches of new snow outside and it's still snowing. But I'll be watching SNL50 instead of shoveling. I grew up watching SNL, so this is great in my book. Snow can wait until tomorrow.

Ida B. Wells: American Stories Ida B. Wells' story is told as never before in a new AMERICAN STORIES special.

PBS is airing a remarkable documentary on Ida B. Wells. What an amazing woman she was. I'd love to write about her, but there are better writers to do that.

I've had so much fun in December and January, doing school visits in Spokane and Mead, WA. THANK YOU, all the people who made it possible. I'm so grateful!

This picture is from Jefferson Elementary's STEM night, where Auntie's (thanks to Ness, my youngest) sold books.

Tonight, I'll be at Jefferson Elementary's STEM night, right here in Spokane. Hope to see you there! Auntie's will be selling a few of my books. The photo is from my school visit at Jefferson in November. I love this school!

In 2006, TALES OF THE CRYPTIDS was published in hardback only. Today, the hardback is discontinued, but the paperback will make it affordable for more young readers. I couldn't be more thrilled. Available now!
