The ALSAC article list so many great ways to support libraries and librarians .I’d add, let your city council/governing body/city management know how much you love the library with kudos and shout outs!

My editor sent me a couple of line edits to really tie up a manuscript and bring it all together. I’m so happy how the story turned out with her help… but also baffled how I didn’t see what she saw 😂

Today is the first day of Black History Month. A good day to listen to James Baldwin speak about the artists struggle for integrity:

As predicted by @friendsoffbisdl.bsky.social and allies in the fight for the freedom to read, the recently revised EF Local board policy, that goes above and beyond what is permitted or required by state law, is having a measurable negative impact on FBISD libraries.

Picture books are a unique art form, and 12x12 has been a game changer for me. The community of writers and craft webinars are incredible.
If you’re on the fence about applying for a scholarship let this be your sign to go for it!

@justinrcolon.bsky.social Justin's critiques are always thoughtful, practical and implementable. His recording of read aloud of your manuscript (if he still does it) is icing on the top. Check it out!

It’s been almost a year since my last post.
Hi! I write books for kids and teens. Reading, sleeping and dark chocolate are my favorites.
