Just totally freaked myself out when from the corner of my eye something was creeping across my thumb. Then I realised it was the strap of my phone😬😂

If my husband sighs one more time tonight, I'm going scream!😠 They say in writing that people don't sigh so much, but they haven't met my husband 😂

I was determined to write today, but my brain had other ideas as I left my main phone at home, and my other one ran out of battery just when I started getting in the flow😭 I can’t use pen and paper as it gets wet where I sit at work. #writing

Still building this starter pack let me know if this is you and you'd like to be added

I'm in the early stages of working on a starter pack for #writers and #authors who either currently work in or have worked in #STEM fields. If this is you (any genre or age range of writing) hit me up so I can add you.

Did you know there's a dog in my book? His name's Panda. Don't want to ruin a surprise but I know how many little readers love dogs! He's not on the cover, but Panda's actually the star. 🐾💌🐼 #kidlit #doglovers #animallovers #picturebooks #teachers #librarians

LOOK! It finally came! I've been dying to get my hands on this new Agatha Christie Puzzle Book and it's here! It had to be my share for #MysteryMonday. If you love doing puzzles, from crosswords to codes to missing letter mysteries and more, AND you're a fan of Agatha Christie, this is a must-have!

People keep saying that Bluesky reminds them of early Twitter, or that it’s the New Twitter.

This is not Twitter. It is better by leaps and bounds.

Utilizing the granular controls @debbieohi.com describes below makes Bluesky much safer and more useful than Twitter ever was.
Not interested in seeing reposts, quote-posts and/or replies? Want to mute certain words or tags?
Want to limit who can reply to one of your posts? Or lock a thread so no one else can reply?

I've updated my "Control What You Do (& Don't) See" #BlueSkyTips:

For my familiar Bluesky-ers and #haikuSaturday folks- I am taking a break from the site. I’m feeling overwhelmed w/the (wonderful) influx and am finding too much time fluttering by as I try to keep up.

I hope to be back soon.

Keep posting haikus and cheering each other on!

So, for any new followers... Just over five years ago, we were a bookshop about to close down.

We reopened on November 2nd 2019, after we took the keys with no real idea on what to do, other than a passion for children's and YA books ❤️

And here we are!
