Good morning! I am SO EXCITED to reveal the cover of my new picture book, WISH IN A TREE. It is INCREDIBLY illustrated by the talented Nancy Carpenter. Big thanks to John Schu for the reveal and, of course, to our cherished editor Nancy Paulsen. <3

@AmyNielsen06 Thanks so much, Amy! This is very helpful!

🧵I've been meeting with editors all week and asking most of them two questions. 1) What keeps you reading a submission? 2) As far as craft, what advice do you have for authors? And I'm sharing some of that with you today! #writingcommunity #amquerying

This is a pic from where I live, maybe a year or two back…. but I needed the inspirational boost today. #CapeCod

“In November, the trees are standing all sticks and bones. Without their leaves, how lovely they are, spreading their arms like dancers. They know it is time to be still.” ― Cynthia Rylant
I'm trying to be still. 🤞

We buried my husband this weekend. We cried. We told stories. We laughed. We wept. In his honor, I offer you this poem by Henry Scott Holland. Read it now or tuck it away for the dark days when you are grieving for one of your own. #blessings #grief #death #widowdom

@ShawnTWrites I hear you, Shawn. Emotionally exhausting, for sure. 🤞

We have a BIG week ahead of us! I’m hoping all the plot twists will be favorable. I’m emotionally exhausted & on the edge of my seat, so I’m making the most of the time shift & went to bed at 8pm last night to reinvigorate my #writing routine. #5amwritersclub #WritingCommunity
