My latest borrow from my local library was a great one! Check it out if you're in the mood for vampires and getting angry at people who Just. Won't. Listen!

That's awesome! My son made his own hollow knight costume!

Dragula has been my background show lately & I love the disclaimer they make before judging. Rejection is such a huge part of being in the arts, & I think a lot of us as authors or illustrators could use that reminder whether we're querying, on submission or just having our art out in the world.

Hmm...for some reason I don't think Nora Roberts wants to bond with me over writing.

Reading The Hidden Oracle by Rick Riordan with my youngest and noticed this very particular car mentioned. Hmm...Sam and Dean battling giant ants? #SPNFamily

A rainy but awesome Halloween. My youngest made his Hollow Knight costume himself!

Something with tiny hands was having fun on my porch. ❤️

It's here! It's here! Happy Halloween everyone! Get that candy and do your best to stay on this side of the veil! 🎃

(We'll be doing our best to stay dry *sigh*)

My local bar listed a book club as one of the events this month and the book looked great, so I checked to see if the club was open to anyone and went last night with a friend! Super excited about jumping outside my comfort zone. I also really enjoyed this book. I'm all about the cozy right now.

Did you know my book, Grounded for All Eternity, takes place on Halloween?? It's the perfect treat!

A very successful evening! The shadow cast did a great job, props were excellent and kiddo had a wonderful time! She did wonder where the last 20 minutes of the movie came from though. LOL!

Stopped by @phoenixbooks.biz today in Essex to sign a special order (did you know you can order my books signed & personalized?) & was thrilled to see GROUNDED in the Halloween display. There are now signed copies of both GROUNDED and AFTERLIFE OF THE PARTY so go grab them before they're gone! 🎃

Hey @maryaverling.bsky.social,
I was just browsing my library on the Libby app and look what I found...

Now this is how you do it! This sign caught our eye at the roller derby, so we had to pick up a few stickers! Love to support actual artists, not the plagiarism machine.

What condiment would you partner with to promo your book?

IT'S TIME IT'S TIME!!! Ok, you don't actually need it to be October for spooky reads, but it doesn't hurt! Time for scary books and horror movies, hot cider and the crunch of falling leaves. Cozy blankets and ghosts and ghouls. Let's do this!

My second read I raced through in a day. Literally glancing down at my phone while putting shelves up in my daughter's room. SAY A LITTLE PRAYER. A F/F friends to lovers YA at camp! But it's a religious camp and her dad is the pastor. Yikes. A disection of religion, spirituality, fear and belonging.

First up! BINGSU FOR TWO. An enemies to lovers,YA, in rival coffee shops with an exploration of found family, standing on your own and figuring out who you are. Loved it! While it was not completely angst free, it was minimal, so perfect cozy read.

On this day in 1692, Giles Corey was pressed to death at the age of 81, for not entering a plea, thus not allowing himself to be tried for witchcraft, during the Salem Witch Trials. His last words were, "More weight..."

Anyway, more than 300 years later he gets a shout out in my kid's book so...
