My #outofcontextnotes for the opening session of the @scbwi's #scbwisummer2025 featuring @LaurentLinn moderating @jerrycraft, #kerilambert, @gayleforman, @ebetsygomez, and #DanNovack. I wasn't able to watch the whole thing, but this is what I was able to get.

I’ll be one of 18 authors presenting at the 30th annual Texas Book Festival scheduled for this November 8–9 in downtown Austin.

i’ve been anxiously awaiting the American Library Association’s Annual Conference all year. Then at 6 AM American Airlines canceled all flights going from Orlando to Philly. So guess who’s driving? Just hit Georgia, 11 hours to go. Just stopped at Buccees for lunch .Team J is on the way!#alaac25
