THE LAST DRAGON HOUSE is an Indies Introduce pick! I've been an indie bookseller myself for six years, and though most of my professional life is now devoted to writing, I still consider the bookselling world a home. So I could not be more thrilled or honored, truly. www.bookweb.org/indies-intro...

Really excited to announce that my debut book, the first in a middle grade trilogy about dragons and labor rights, will be published by Abrams in spring 2026. Many many thanks to my amazing agent @sarahnfisk.bsky.social and @thetobiasagency.bsky.social for making my lifelong dream come true.

The Eaton fires destroyed a youth care facility my friend worked at. They had no time to pack, and everything is lost.

Please help support them if you can. These children and teen were ALREADY vulnerable before the fires.

An officially licensed bottle of Mario shampoo from Japan with an attached waterproof picture book contains a small unique illustration showing that the book can be read while bathing, using Yoshi as a subject. Below is the illustration, upscaled and isolated.

If you read the Washington Post story i shared in here yesterday about the trans teen volleyball player who had her life ruined by bigots and the police. This is a verified fundraiser (I have personal verification) to help them raise moving expenses to flee Florida.

one of my favorite/least favorite things is when I’m listen to If Books Could Kill while working and the subject of the episode comes up in my buying list, thus forcing me to acknowledge how well it’s selling
