Wintertime tip: I just learned from my son’s teacher that if you tuck the fur trim of your hood under, it provides a ton more warmth and insulation to your head and body. It’s a game changer, try it! ❄️

This is for real, not a joke. It’s waffle flavored (I think because Millie Bobbie Brown’s character liked waffles) with demagorgon marshmallows! I might try and save the box. I’m sure there are purists out there who are not even opening it, to keep it in mint condition.

My word/mantra for this new year is: PLAY
It’s joyful, expansive, and quietly rebellious. Playing with new writing genres (maybe more than one). Playing on the page without overthinking the outcome. And playing by showing up in real life to learn, connect, and create in community. #kidlit
