I am working on a book in which a climactic scene takes place at an animal shelter that particularly caters to cats. I need a good name for it. Any suggestions? If I end up using yours, I will give you a shoutout in the book’s acknowledgements!

A few words of wisdom changed my life, and now I’m sharing them with you! #CCSTheAdviceThagChangedMyLife

My new story in Chicken Soup for the Soul - Be You - is a lesson I learned from my daughter Emily...girls can grow up to be anything they can dream! #ChickenSoupfortheSoul #ChickenSoupSoul #CSSBeYou #WomeninSTEM

@peterhreynolds You are awesome! My first graders love your books and I must say they are “heart-changing for me too!

@ANNELAMOTT Thank you for this! It does help!

Today’s free writing advice: Even though this will not help at ALL, and will suck, write one passage at some point today—one passage, one page, memory or scene—ANYTIME TODAY. This is possible! Now tell us what time you will be sitting down & keeping your butt in the chair. Deal?

@ChickenSoupSoul Happy Mother’s Day!!!

Q4: Who are you giving this book to as a gift? #CSSGrandparents

@Jill__Burns Thank you- loved your story!

@ERFarella Wow! What a great photograph!

I think my Nona is smiling that she is a part of this amazing book series! My grandmother struggled to learn the language of her new country and now she is part of book! #cssgrandparents

@Jill__Burns @ChickenSoupSoul @amynewmark Beautiful boy- beautiful story!

#CSSGrandparents Hello, everyone. I'm so honored and excited to have my story "Panic Button" included in this fun book! This is my grandson, Carson. He was two years old when the story took place. Where did the time go? @ChickenSoupSoul @amynewmark

@Shutterbug_23 @amynewmark Beautiful! It is not the length of time we are loved by someone but it is the impression of that love that we remember❤️

@amynewmark What a sweet photo of you and your grandfather, Amy...

Here I am at age one with my grandfather Saul. I think I was probably about one. He died when I was eight but I still remember how big he was and how much I loved his visits. #CSSGrandparents

How special that @ERFarella got to go to Italy with her grandmother to see the old country. #CSSGrandparents

@ChickenSoupSoul My grandparents taught me to always be a light in someone else’s day rather than a cloud, and to also love myself and who I am despite judgment from others #CSSGrandparents

@ChickenSoupSoul The most important lesson was that family is everything!

Q2: What was the greatest life lesson you received from your grandparents? #CSSGrandparents

#CSSGrandparents Grandparents help fill the gaps and empty spaces in our hearts! My Nona filled my heart with love, my face with kisses and my belly with homemade cookies!

@MarycmPhil I’m ready- Book talk & Coffee! What’s better?

@ERFarella Congratulations! Looking forward to reading it! Let’s get together again for coffee too☕️!

So proud and excited to have a story about my grandmother in this new Chicken Soup for the Soul book ❤️ #chickensoupforthesoul
