Going through old files reminded me how much fun it was living 11 years in sports-crazy Boston. The Celtics, Bruins, Red Sox and Patriots all won national championships while we were there. Riding the T into various sports venues was always a hoot with fans joining at every stop----such camaraderie.

The kiddo and I had our annual day-before-first-day-of-school trip to Lan Su Chinese Garden. Jasmine green tea, hibiscus tea, red bean moon cake and almond cookies for the stomach. Koi, water lilies, waterfalls and the most perfect quiet sanctuary for the soul.

At age 5 or 6 I embroidered this tea towel. I worked for hours & was quite proud of myself until I realized I had sewed it to the skirt I was wearing. It was no fun to scrap first attempts and begin again--an early lesson that creatives need to start over and revise--in writing as in embroidery.

First hollyhocks of the summer, which always make me think of PRISCILLA AND THE HOLLYHOCKS and Anna Alter's amazing paintings for our book. Before I researched this book I didn't even know what a hollyhock looked like. Now I will always have hollyhocks planted in our garden.

85% of my writing is done on my laptop but sometimes, I need to use paper and pen to get the visuals that work best so my mind can process what a revision needs. In this case, reworking structure and chapter order in my WIP (Scholastic fall, 2026 historical novel). Today, old school rules!

1) Lots of marketing work for EATING TO SAVE THE PLANET (this August).
2) Work on WORDS SPOKEN TRUE (2026 YA novel).
3) Proofs for the I'M GONNA PAINT paperback (this November). I love everything about the back cover text below.

I was nervous about marching today, never before having protested in a country where people have "been disappeared" off public streets by what feels like an authoritarian government. Spending a few hours with thousands of other like-minded people to show what democracy looks like gives me hope.

I'm grateful that our second-grader goes to a school where he's been learning about the civil rights movement, especially Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the March on Washington and Ruby Bridges. His summary of what he learned is going to be my guiding light for Saturday's "Hand's Off" march.

I was fortunate to see a Queen of the Night blooming cereus today for its short few hours of life.
