Look at what I came across in the New York Times! Congrats @diannewrites.bsky.social

The evening landscape crew showed up tonight.

So glad to see things finally moving here. To re-introduce myself, I’m an author/illustrator of MG and PB’s querying and looking for a positive place for inspiration and connection to the community. You’ll find me posting here about art, books, illustration, food, Arizona landscape, and Corvids.

Arizona gets snow too! Woo hoo! This morning the low was 10 degrees. #rimcountryaz #mybackyard #mogollonrim #studiogmwbooks

First read of 2024. Man, this was a hard one. Important. But hard. Della is so smart and strong. She’s going to be on my mind for a long time. #fightingwords @kimbbbradley.bsky.social

New year. New snow. New notebook. I’d say it’s a good time for new stories!

Writers Group Holiday Party. Yeah, we did talk literature and plurale tantums and such. But we enjoyed good food, laughed hard, and each went home with a new book! Great seeing all of you. That was fun!

Oh, great.
