Are you ready for the first #supermoon of 2025? It's officially tomorrow, but it will be just as big and bright tonight! Plus it occurs in the midst of #spaceweek too!

Happy #NationalPoetryDay to all who celebrate!
Can you believe I now have 30 children's poems up on the Dirigible Balloon website (along with many other fab poets)?! Here they are in all their glory - have a browse if you have a moment.
Thanks to @northernjim.bsky.social for having me!

Happy #WorldVegetarianDay from the World's First Vegetarian Fox!
Outside the Box is a rhyming picture book that celebrates staying true to yourself and following your dreams (even if it is a bit scary). For Fennel that was opening a vegetarian cafe, but what will it be for you?

Fennel's just found out it was #nationalfoxday yesterday and he didn't do anything to celebrate!
