Very exciting news!

On this July 4, I thank the true patriots, like my dad, who have fought for and supported this country. I apologize for the idiocy that has poisoned this country, possibly irreparably.
It is not a happy July 4, certainly not a happy Independence Day.

A beautiful song from Disney's live action Beauty and the Beast with resonant lyrics, particularly during #Alzheimers Awareness Month. #grief #memories Happy Birthday, Aunt Eleanor.

Tinker Bell and I wish all who celebrate it a Happy Easter. She likes her ears as they are, but Lucky the otter wanted bunny ears! We think he wants to be in a Disney film!

As Cinderella said, "They can't stop me from dreaming."
As Fairy Godmother said, "Even miracles take a little time."
Thanks @pbrisingstars.bsky.social for the opportunity to work on making my dream come true.

Found these little critter finger puppets at an adorable shop in Hudson, NY. I think they will be a delightful inspiration for my writing.

Took a little escape to Hudson, NY to inspire my writing with a change of pace and scenery, and to honor my late husband’s birthday with a train ride- he loved train holidays! Anyone else do this?

Today is Tinker Bell’s Gotcha Day!
We adopted each other 6 years ago and she’s 8- we made today her birthday, too! She’s either wishing for me to write a picture book about her or to stop taking so many pictures….maybe both!

Happy #WorldWhaleDay!
I got to meet sweet Shila last summer at Georgia Aquarium. I've followed this little girl since she was born!

NYC Ballet’s The Nutcracker is one of my favorite holiday traditions. This it has just inspired a picture book idea, too! #kidlit #picturebooks

Sending good wishes and gratitude for friends who are like family. Tinker Bell is grateful that I can use Photoshop and that Duffy dresses up instead of her! Happy Thanksgiving!

Pure inspiration and joy! Starting the holiday season with favorite ladies, @lizgoeson.bsky.social and @annhamptoncallaway.bsky.social at my favorite space, 54Below!

Thank goodness for the arts, especially in dark times. This was a fun and festive performance!

Cher in conversation with Harry Smith! Loved her since I was a kid. So excited!!

My Mommy worked on her writing all weekend and didn’t even write about me!! At least she stayed home for Tinker Bell and Mommy time.

Today is International #WhaleSharkDay. I took the photo of these gorgeous creatures at one of my favorite places, Georgia Aquarium. Being with animals inspires me in so many ways-it's my #selfcare and gives me ideas as a writer for #picturebooks. What inspires you and/or your writing?
