I wrote an article with my tips for writing a children’s book. I’m often asked this question, so I thought I’d put it all in a blog post. #kidlit #booksky

Here’s a reminder that not because someone speaks in Spanish it means that they can be a translator or copyeditor. There are so many nuances to consider when one is translating. Also, knowledge of the craft and industry is a must! Hit me up if you have any translation projects.

My #FathersDay post is WAY too late but here it goes:
Meet Patrick,Vampirita’s dad, or Father as she calls him. He’s kind, understanding and most important: he is present, even if her parents are divorced. Happy Father’s Day to all dads who are like Patrick! #booksky #earlymg #kidlit #ReycraftBooks

My latest publication is a short story titled Pachakamaq and Pachamama, in this storybook by Lonely Planet Kids Books. It features 20 traditional retellings from authors from all around the world. A Treasury of Traditional Tales is truly a treasure!

While in Massachusetts, I visited Glen Urquhart School in Beverly. Such amazing kiddos! We read and danced to Run Little Chaski! And had a wonderful Q&A with the loser classes. #booksky #edusky #schoolvisit

Grateful with ReycraftBooks and Barefoot Books for this fantastic experience! I loved my first #NCTE and getting to meet so many authors and educators and reuniting with old friends. Book people are the best! 📚 #edusky #bookish
