I don't know if you've ever seen #Batman The Animated Series but I'm watching it now and, let me tell you, the music on this show goes SO HARD. Like, I would go to the symphony for this soundtrack.

Just chilling at the comic shop when suddenly.... A mimic!

So, I have a writing tradition. Every time I type THE END on a new MS, I get a commemorative T-Shirt. Something meaningful to the book to remind me what a big deal finishing a draft is. This week I got my latest! I know typing the end isn't really the end, but I'm celebrating. #kidlit #middlegrade
