Tonight, I did a scary-to-me thing and survived!
I read four minutes (one chapter) of my YA novel in front of authors, agents, and an editor.
I'm proud of myself for conquering my fears! #theverge #ctcwriters #kidlit @thewritingbarn

Last weekend myself and 3 other #picturebook creators presented “DinoMania” for kids at the West Valley Library for stem, art, and history content related to our books. Complete with a scavenger fossil hunt. So much fun to collaborate and make an exciting, educational event. #edusky #kidlit

Friends: it would mean the world if you could call out to the ether and share my books!
They're about two tween stepsisters who constantly run afoul of ghosts, monsters, and other creepy stuff.
They face them all with wit, snark, and especially snark.
Did I say snark already? Also snark 😆
