How’s a #writer supposed to get anything done with the first TICKS of the season making their debut? 😟
T-minus one day to launch!! 🚀 (St. Paul, MN) #writingcommunity #scbwi #kidlit
That moment you realize your outfit makes you look like a certain #celebrity…
Can you help me brainstorm questions people might ask at bookstore events beyond, “How did you get started writing?” or “Why did you write this book?”

Great workshop today by @kfjbooks.bsky.social! We created collage art related to specific manuscripts in progress. Mine motivated me to power through a tricky spot. Onward! ✂️ ✍️ 📚 #WritingCommunity #KidLit
Another first! Representing the Red Balloon Bookshop at the Grand Old Days parade in St. Paul. So fun! 📕 💜 🎈 #KidLit #writingcommunity #SCBWI #AstraBooks
Sick day today. 🤮 Trying to make the best of it with a little 🎨 #art play.
