The voice inside my head saying I can’t do it- I envision it as a little witch. Today I banished her to a cage while I wrote. This trick worked beautifully! Thank you @meganefreeman for this fruitful trip. #amwriting #RMCSCBWI22.

@PbSpree I love the book SKULLS by @ATallOrder, illustrated by Scott Cambell . An informative and fun celebration of the big bone in our heads! Perfect for Halloween.

It's almost Halloween! What are you favorite spooky - or not so spooky picture books? #kidlit #pb #Halloween2022 #amreading

A year ago today this little book came into the world. Connecting with curious young readers has been a joy. #middlegrade #books #WritingCommunity

Nothing beats a trip to the library!
