Dozen from my camera roll between flights and road trips. 1. Ziggy has suddenly become less skittish. It’s a miracle. I think she missed me. She’s on my lap as I type this. I love her. 👑 2. Every dongle I’ve ever lost looks like this, and yet— 3. Flew to Houston. 4. & 5. Found the best ever pumpkin contest entry there. And also a great book festival. 6.-8. Heed. 9. 🤡 10. The hair overflowed the dustpan. 11. Then I voted. 12. My new favorite sweater.
This four days at home per week thing is both getting old and also oddly normal. @tweensread is a banger of a festival and I hope to go back. Watching friends get married is also banger and not the place to wear #12. Voting is essential and I hope—I just hope.
The best thing is that Ziggy has come to trust the world and is no longer scared of basic stuff. It took her 11 years to get here and I’m proud of her. 🥹🐈
Rochester! You’re next! See you this Saturday.
Next up: Bettendorf, Iowa to conduct more literacy research with the help of middle and high school students. Public event at the library.
Last chance to fist bump: NCTE/ALAN in my favorite city! Schedule coming soon.
Be good to each other.

When my children called me “Captain,” it was always a compliment. What a loss.

Finished It Cane From The Creek by @as_king_ published by @scholastic I loved every single moment it’s not everyday you come across such a thought provoking and heartfelt book. 100% recommend. I learned a lot about showing perspective and why/how character driven plots can truly come alive. So many topical lessons within these pages… full review coming soon 🥰

Photo dump from the IT CAME FROM THE CREEK tour so far.
1. Cheese is good. 2. & 3. Kansas is pretty. 4. - 7. Went to see @rabbit_hole_kc and loved every minute. I started to recite Hungry Mungry from memory when I saw the sidewalk end. 8. Johnson County Library cares about humans. 9. Driving around AZ. 10. I ❤️ @changinghands 11. Okay. 12. Day trip to Sedona to say hi to the vortex and this tree. 13. Friends 4 ever. 14. Action shot in Nashville. 15. If you ever get a chance to see the @unbannablelibrary, do it! The @sofestofbooks was rad!
Heading to @tweensread now and queen Ziggy is being pampered by her favorite humans while I’m gone.
Next stop: Rochester for the book festival 11/7.
Who Will I see at NCTE/ALAN?

Seventeen from my camera roll this BOOK LAUNCH week!
1. I love this Berks launch picture @andreanicolehunter took. Also: library lovers and supporters! Want to help a great library in these times of politically motivated funding cuts? Help @readingpublib fix their elevator by donating today! 2. But back to last week and this is the best cupcake I have ever eaten. Go get a coconut crème from @lancastercupcake #womenowned 3. IT’S YOUR FAULT. 4. & 5. Finnegan is likely not dead / Epic humans at @parenfaire (Sorry Rhiannon. 🪓) 6. Cavalcade night for the Gracie King Award. Me and @gretchenmarinda, who is rad. 7. Random dinner pic. The tofu is winning. 8. Book birthday surprise! It’s Miss Olivia!! This means three characters from the book were present at its birthday party. 🕺🕺🕺 9. I love these humans. 10. I love this feline. 11. @berksnature was an incredible place to hold the Berks Co. launch. Also an incredible place to donate and take a great walk. 12. Tour stuff. 13. Thank you to the teacher who handed me this. I will die with a very eclectic historical newspaper collection. 14. When used cars were affordable. 15. Send this to a friend who is making safe spaces for queer youth. 🏳️🌈 16.The hot sauce I make next week will be mighty. 17. This is where IT CAME FROM THE CREEK started. #iykyk
Phoenix! Wednesday night at Changjng Hands, Tempe 7pm. Nashville! I’ll be at the Southern Festival of Books this coming weekend!
Thoughts on book 16: I love my job. Book 17 is coming next August. I’m about to write 18, have 33% of 19 done, and 25% of 20 and 21. It’s a party in my brain!
You’re always invited! 🥳

A dozen from my camera roll a week before book launch. (I’m not busy, you’re busy.👀)
1. Working late. 2. My neighbor’s cat loves my porch. (Ignore the Triffids.) 3. I’ll always stop at @lancastercupcake when I can. #womenownedsmallbusiness 🫶🏻 4. IT CAME FROM THE CREEK teaser—Here’s the chemical dump site while the haunted house was still there. 👻 Note the nearby river. 5. First play I wrote from 6th grade. Been digging through old stuff for a secret project. 6. In a row. 7. & 8. Drove 10 hours to Indianapolis to see a game. 9. Then turned around and 10. Watched the Phils lose during sunset with Jax. 11. Hawkeye Pierce got a legit halo on my desk, @thealanalda. 🫶🏻 12. You do.
Music brought to you by 1980–which is when the new book is set and the first time the Phillies ever won a World Series.
