Beautiful sunrise yesterday at the Great Midwest Crane Fest in Baraboo, Wisconsin for. So much beauty in the world. We just have to remember to look for it.

It's a star! Woot! From those fine folks at Booklist. The countdown is on--it's three months from today that LOUISA LEARNS TO WRITE will hit shelves. Fist bumps to everyone involved!

Words + Wine is back! And it's coming up on solstice weekend! What better way to kick off summer than with a book by a Chicago author and a hand-selected bottle of wine?

5-7 p.m. June 21st at 57th Street Wines, 1448 E 57th Street in Hyde Park. FREE wine tasting, EIGHT Chicago authors

On a school visit yesterday, a wee lad told me not to worry, if writing a book is hard, I could just "have a robot do it."

I laughed through my tears.
