As a writer suffering from grief and major depression, I should be thriving. Historically, writers thrive when suffering. But, my creativity isn’t thriving. Some days, I write whole stories. Other days, I can’t even read. Anyone relate? #writingcommunity

Teachers who love read alouds, appreciate beautiful illustrations and like books that make students feel included and celebrated … I hope you find my account. ❤️📚🎨📝✨

I can’t explain the joy I feel when teachers read a book I wrote to their students and the students love the book 🧡 #picturebook #teachers #readaloud #writingcommunity
Social media is wild. A couple weeks ago, Audrey Penn, the author of THE KISSING HAND, followed me…
My 1st thought:
This must be a fraud account. However, upon investigation, my 1st thought was wrong.
So, my current claim to fame is that Audrey Penn follows me. #pb #kidlit
I can’t believe it’s already been a year since this special book was published. More than that, I can’t believe it’s touched hearts the way it has.
Thank you to anyone who has supported in any way this past year🧡 #writingcommunity #adhdawareness #pb #kidlit
Thank you so much for your kind words and for this reminder ❤️
Writing while trying to face grief over my father’s passing has felt near-impossible. Honestly, most of life has. Getting out of bed every day is a win, right now, for me. Just doing my best over here. #grief
It is a vibe… not necessarily the good kind.
Editing a picture book manuscript before I send it to my agent = spending the last 3 hours re-thinking ONE word.
Life as a kidlit author.

The wildest thing about Happy Gilmore 2 is that Adam Sandler is 58, yet looks 40 and gives even younger vibes. I need to know his equation for the fountain of youth! #adamsandler #happygilmore #happygilmore2
Your published works is so impressive! It’s so inspiring. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for commenting! I’d love to hear more about your flip-flopping journey! What genres/ages do you write in?
I’m a picture book author who is writing a dystopian YA novel. I have no idea if it’s good. But, at my heart, I’m a writer and this is where my creativity has led me. I need to know opinions on genre switching and switching demographics with your readers? Good choice? #writingcommunity
I have a concept picture book on sub that celebrates the diversity of learning in our world. I know it could be such a beautiful book in homes and schools around the world. My fingers are crossed it finds the right publishing home #writingcommunity #editors #publishers #publishing
As an author, it’s definitely a highlight to be featured in my local newspaper 🎉 #writingcommunity
Hahahah you are spot on
I can finally share! Masterpiece will soon be available in Scholastic book fairs and book clubs! ✨This is an absolute dream. Thank you to my fabulous agent @vickyweberbooks.bsky.social for

BIG NEWS in my world dropping very soon 🥹🎉#writingcommunity
When I play “A Million Dreams,” my 4 year old says his “dad” is singing every time Hugh Jackman’s sings. My son also thinks his dad “plays hockey on TV” when we watch the Oilers.
Conclusion: I live with both Hugh Jackman & a pro hockey player

That’s so amazing! Thank you so much for sharing that with me. That’s so exciting about your manuscript (I’m assuming it’s still in production). Any idea about when it’s publishing or are you querying?
My new picture book is FREE for 1 more day. It’s ranking as a Top New Release and a #1 Best Seller!
