One of the days I look forward to most each month is our @scbwi-sobreeze.bsky.social critique group!📝

I’ve never met a more supportive group of people! Their feedback is honest, kind, and always encouraging—they truly have a way with words!

Worth every mile for the coffee & conversations!☕ #kidlit

A few of the sweet treats I’ve been baking up this month (bread and cinnamon rolls courtesy of “Doughlores,” my sourdough starter) as I (im)patiently wait for the hummingbirds to make their way back to my yard! 🧁 🪺 🌷

Just a little peek at some of the cards I am working on today! 💌

What started as “Thankful Thursday” during my time as a literacy coach has grown into a regular way for me to celebrate the people around me. How blessed am I to have such wonderful people in my life—and who doesn’t love “fun” mail?🤩

No four-leaf clover but I did apply to #PBParty —which is even better! Excited to catch the judges’ hints along the way to the pot of gold! Good luck everyone entering! Let’s sham-rock this thing!💚

“I’m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it.” 🍀

I’m excited to share that I've officially applied to the last year of @pbrisingstars.bsky.social!🥳

Beginning my journey as a children’s book writer during its final year feels especially meaningful. No matter the outcome I am honored for the opportunity!

Here’s to the next chapter!📖 #PBRisingStars

Feeling especially grateful to be the proud winner (and new owner!) of this great book, but even more grateful to be a part of the @scbwi.bsky.social community that brings people together with the shared goal of getting our stories into the hands & hearts of children!🌎 #scbwi #kidlit #picturebooks

Your entry is so cute!!!!!🥰 Best wishes to you!!!

There’s something special about being able to spend time reading with children on Valentine’s Day!! What a great way to fill the heart and soul!! 💜📖🩷 #valentinesday #magictreehousebooks #kidlit

I couldn’t think of a better way to start the week off than with a JAM session! 📝 @scbwi.bsky.social @scbwiwestcentny.bsky.social

Had the best time at the @scbwi.bsky.social conference! Met some incredible people, learned so much, and left feeling inspired in all the right ways! Grateful for this community and excited for this next chapter! 💚📝 #scbwiny26
