Happy Book Birthday to MAYBE JUST ASK ME! - the book I wished I had a kid. It’s Disability Book Week and this story is about discussing disability openly and honestly-curiosity with kindness is always allowed🙂

Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies.
In Denmark:

If you’re a querying writer using Libby, here’s a secret research tip to find agents to query: go to the pages of comps/books you feel yours will sit well next to on a shelf. After the blurb, Libby links to any trade reviews the book might have. Publisher’s Weekly reviews list the agent!

This is why when I check in with friends, I apologetically say something like, “You okay? I don’t know where anything is.”
Been getting a lot of people asking about LA geography concerned that the images they see means the entire county is on fire. That's understandable.
But LA is a big place. So, to give an idea of scale it's time to cart this out again. It's a map of LA with other cities superimposed on it.
