A clay rose by my four year old. I’m seriously impressed! She was so focused and spent about thirty minutes perfecting the flower. She did this entirely on her own by looking at a rose! I see big creative things in her future! 🎨

I woke up to several texts and emails from my amazing CPs to tell me my PB is an honourable mention in #PBParty! This story wouldn’t be what it is without all their support. Thanks also to @mindyalyseweiss.bsky.social and all the judges! I’m thrilled for Gertrude! ❤️ #amquerying

I’ve had Dogtown on my list to buy ever since I heard @choldenko.bsky.social on @shannonballoon.bsky.social’s podcast. I was SO surprised when I stumbled upon this signed copy at the store by my house! I cannot wait to start this book!

To show my support for the #SpringFlingKidlit donors, I read and left a Good Reads review for the incredible book, Pedro the Pirate, by @ciaralovesbooks.bsky.social . What a great way to blend SEL and humour while incorporating a unique and important aspect: being a foster kid!

To show my support for the #SpringFlingKidlit donors, I read and left a Good Reads review for the amazing book Too Much: An Overwhelming Day by
@writerjolene.bsky.social. As someone who has sensory challenges, this book spoke right to me!

To show my support for the #SpringFlingKidlit donors, I read and left a Good Reads review for the wonderful book, Together We Swim by the talented @valeriebolling.bsky.social . Everyone needs to check out this book! It has beautifully written sparse text that is paired with gorgeous illustrations!

Why not post my #SpringFlingKidlit story for all to enjoy!? I #entered yesterday and spent some time reading the stories in the comments. WOW, they're all so incredible. Good luck, judges! @kaitlynleann17.bsky.social @ciaralovesbooks.bsky.social

Started querying my #middlegrade novel last week and it feels great! I hope that one day neurodiverse readers will be able to see themselves in the MC and feel less alone. Any #agents interested in a MG that blends friendship struggles, ND self-discovery, and survival? Oh, and it's set at a cottage.
