Bah! Humbug! Someone has stolen Christmas *again*, but it wasn't the Grinch this time. If the perp doesn't turn things around, someone REALLY unexpected might end up on the Naughty List. #DVPit #PB #HA #Q [in acquisitions, as start of #holiday series]

When Cyril the Coptic camel finds himself with a smell stuck in his nose, he must discover the source if he hopes to shake it loose. Heading up a caravan, Cyril leads his friends on an olfactory journey through the desert, past the Mediterranean Sea, and into the heart of Cairo. #DVPit #OWN #PB #Q

TIPTOE TINA, BALLERINA is ready for the spotlight! There are only two problems: (1) her family is too distracted to be a good audience and (2) her ballet slippers are missing. But Tina knows the show must go on... #DVpit #PB #Q #HA #rhyming

Miles’s words have a mind of their own; try as he might, he cannot contain them. A gift from Mom and Dad might help Miles take control over his words...or the gift might take control over Miles. #DVPit #PB #Q #SEL #ND

Winter wind in New York City — A descriptive visual:

I just saw someone’s small, apartment-sized Christmas tree rolling rapidly along the sidewalk like a tumbleweed.

2025 #Storystorm — I’m in! This is my third year, and I can’t wait to see how many ideas pop up this month. Many of my manuscripts and drafts were conceived during this super helpful annual brainstorming event. (Thank you, @taralazar.bsky.social !)

I did it!!! Now to wait about two months to find out who is selected for this year's #PBRisingStars mentorship...✍️📚
#AmWriting #AmRevising #AmNervous...

I'm a winner!!! ✍️🎉 (Fast forward to 1:49 to see my 3 seconds of glory.) This was such a terrific and motivating challenge! I will always be so proud of all I accomplished last year. Thank you, @12x12challenge.bsky.social!

I’m in again this year! And I. Can’t. Wait. (I’m still using ideas from last year’s #StoryStorm!) 🤗✍️📝

This small stack of mentor texts has a rather intended visual theme.

✨ There’s something magical about being in a full — yet completely silent — subway car during morning rush hour. ✨

I don’t know French, so I will never stop reading “boulangerie” as a place where you buy lingerie made out of bologna. #uffotd
