My 4yo asked to speak to "the shopkeeper" at Target.

I'm reading about the wars of the roses and this 15th century treason is my new favorite burn:

Wife: "I think both girls have my nose."

Meet @jenmacgregor.bsky.social author of Mags MacDonald Had a Jetpack illustrated by Suharu Ogawa is a new spin on the classic nursery rhyme. Mags MacDonald gets more than she bargained for when she moves to the country to help out on her Grandpa's farm. Will her high-tech gadgets do the trick?

Thanks Erin!

Me: "Did you see that my book was in the newspaper yesterday?"

8yo: "I don't read the newspaper."

Introducing Jake.

Thanks Erin, this was super fun!

Did my first author reading event and received two mega compliments:
- A retired 1st grade teacher asked me if I'm a teacher
- A little girl told me I'm "the best reader ever!"
😊

8yo looking at my book on Goodreads:
"It's a four and a half star book? What more do they want from you?"

Yeah! Double-witch online author event???

This looks amazing!

🎃COVER REVEAL!🎃

Apparently Jake didn't learn his lesson after writing to Santa. Now he's pestering his mysterious new neighbor to help him prepare for his Halloween party.

With witchy words by me and paranormal pictures by Pablo Pino, WHEN THE WITCH WROTE BACK! soars into stores next August.

Time to catch up on my @pbspree.bsky.social books! Have you read these titles yet? They rock!
