Yesterday was the last day of workshops, so @coebooth is starting us off bright and early this morning! She's talking about backstory, inspired by the work she did on her latest book, CAPRICE.

Thanks, Emily. I hope you like it! 😁
I just got one, too! @coebooth is one of my favorite storytellers and I’m so psyched for her second MG novel! CAPRICE.

Love it!!!
My brilliant friend and colleague @thatlauraruby and I both have our first picture books out this month!
We each wrote from our own experiences about families we don’t see enough of in children’s lit: A blended family in Laura’s case and a two-mom family in mine.
