I do not want to be a famous writer.
Most writers I know are repulsed by the idea of fame.
We just want folks to read and enjoy our stories. That's it.

One day, someone might recommend your book to a stranger. You'll never hear the conversation, but your story will travel further than you ever imagined.

Life has a way of testing you when you least expect it.
There will be seasons when nothing seems to work.
When your plans fall apart.
When you feel lost, exhausted, and unsure of what tomorrow holds.
But never mistake a difficult season for a defeated life.
You have more strength within you than you realise. You can survive things you once thought would break you.
The winter won’t last forever.
Even in your darkest moments, remember that there is still a summer inside you. ❤️

Some high school kids were talking and said “No way Gen X wrote 10-page papers without AI.”
Oh, honey.
We wrote them without reading the book…the night before they were due…by hand and in cursive.
We are not the same.

You can track the new space telescope's current position in real time at: eyes.nasa.gov/apps/solar-sys…
ALT screenshot of NASA's Eyes on the Solar System online experience showing the current position and orientation of the Nancy Grace Roman space telescope. The crescent Earth is visible in the distance.
Success! Roman’s planned mid-course correction burn went as expected, ensuring that we are on track for our orbit around the second Lagrange point, a million miles from Earth.

Look up tonight.
The Moon will pass through Earth's shadow during a deep partial lunar eclipse visible from much of North and South America and parts of Europe and Africa. As the eclipse deepens, the Moon will appear tinged with shades of red and copper.
ALT A nearly total partial lunar eclipse fills the center of the frame against a dark sky. The Moon is bathed in shades of red, orange, and copper as Earth's shadow covers most of its surface, leaving only a thin, bright crescent illuminated along its left edge. Dark lunar maria and lighter highlands remain visible through the reddish glow. The image was captured during the November 19, 2021, partial eclipse of the full Beaver Moon, the longest partial lunar eclipse in centuries. Credit: NASA

I’m becoming convinced that the only form of wealth that matters later in life is having adult children who enjoy spending time with you.

On every page, the picture book author must be able to definitely answer why the child should still care. We must ask ourselves: how have I specifically fueled their curiosity to turn the page and continue?

Sometimes you have to celebrate the small joys🥰
I love working with writers to get to the heart of their story & make it the best it can be, while still retaining their individual voice & intent.

Indie authors and publishers, here's some raw stats from the Simon & Schuster / Penguin anti-trust hearings, just in case you thought your books aren't selling well. According to publisher testimony:
50% of all Big-5 published novels sell less than 12 copies
66% sell less than a 1000
98% sell less than 5000 copies.
So, if you sell 13 copies, you're ahead of half of the big-house novels. Food for thought.

If you want to understand American optimism…
We celebrate the date that we declared independence, not the date that we achieved it.

🇺🇸 Happy Independence Day!
Before cable news, there were Saturday morning cartoons. "No More Kings" — Schoolhouse Rock's very first America Rock episode — taught a generation how we fired a king and built a free country.
Some lessons never get old. 🎆

I don't hate socializing. I just love being home. Where it's quiet. Safe. Soft. No small talk. No noise. No pretending to be someone I'm not. Just me. Reading. Thinking. Listening to music. Staring at the wall. Watching old movies. Being bored. And feeling life deeply. Some people call it boring. To me, it's where I finally hear myself again.

After South Carolina reverses its position, Continental Congress votes to declare INDEPENDENCE from Britain, adopting a legal separation from the Crown.
Charles Thomson, Secretary for Continental Congress, uses hash marks to note how many colonies voted for the severance from the Crown.
John Adams writes in a letter to his wife, Abigail, that “the second day of July, 1776 will be the most memorable epoch in American history.”
But although newspapers report the independence, no mass celebrations break out.
