I’m proud because my book was an instant bestseller! And I’m also sad that the world is on fire. This feels like a tiny light. But I shall accept light of all sizes.
I hope you have a twinkling lighthouse too, my friends.

When I was 12, I wrote @stephenking a fan letter. "You might as well answer now because I'm going to write until you do. It would save a lot of time," I said. Well, my friends, that precocious 12-year-old girl is very happy right now because HER FIRST SPOOKY STORY IS ENTERING THE WORLD! @scholastic

I love this note because of its many plot twists. 'Do you like cats? I do. I loooooove books to. I have a cat. I'm allergic to cats and dogs. Thank you again. P.S. I was a cat.'

I had a school visit today. The students shared the stories they wrote. This is my favorite ending in the history of American literature.

This tumultuous world is terribly broken, and yet there is joy. And yet and yet and yet. After more than a year of being sick and homebound, I continue to be eternally grateful for opportunities to emerge into the warm, welcoming, joyful world of kidlit. 💕 @scbwi.bsky.social

I found this journal from 2015. At the time I was in a deep depression. I don’t remember writing this, but it is a letter to myself. Sending it to you in case you need it. 💕
