Wrote my first picture book of 2025! Never mind that I am supposed to be focusing on my middle grade. At least my procrastination is productive.

Been having a blast doing school visits for THIS BOOK IS DEFINITELY NOT CURSED. Lmk if you want me to come to your school within 25 miles of Portland, OR, for some giggles, feet smelling, puppet time, and a make our own curse activity. #schoolvisit #author #writerlife

If you can afford to, please support your local indie! However, as a struggling author, I need my books to sell by any means possible. So I’m sharing this deal from Amazon. Over $4 off the regular price!! Pair it with a wand for a perfect magical Christmas gift! www.amazon.com/This-Book-De...

Yellow is a tough color to pull off. Which is why it’s never worn by strippers.

I finally left Twitter. Feels like ending an unhealthy relationship. Someone tell me how brave I am!

I’ll be at Barnes and Noble in Clackamas on Saturday at 11am for a special #halloweenevent storytime! Join me for a silly, gross craft and a “create a curse” activity! #portland #authorevent

Awesome Amazon editor review! “The wild, wonderful silliness is irresistible.” www.amazon.com/amazonbookre...

My kid told me he loved me so much he could eat a hippo. I have mixed feelings. Flattered, yet slightly disturbed. I hope he doesn’t move onto eating rhinos when he gets his first crush.

Maybe Portlanders need our own app called GreySky. Every time I get on here, I am reminded of how blue our sky isn’t. Way to rub it our faces, BlueSky!

Love the look of this one!

I went to the Apple Store today because my laptop is running super slow. They were basically like: “nothing you can do. This computer is old.” So I guess now I’ll just make sure it’s comfortable until it passes. Maybe take it to a coffee shop one last time.
