My second dream last night was solving my first dream, then the alarm woke me. Now I have a two-dream problem. Anyone else? #dream #problem

Anyone else remember when headlines were representative of the story that followed? I miss those headlines. #memorylane #gone

Anyone else remember when every item on the Modcloth site had a funny, punny name? I miss that Modcloth. #modcloth #puns #gone #memorylane

Song Sung Blue is a emotional roller coaster ride worth taking! Saw a preview last night and still feel hopeful. #songsungblue #craigbrewer #neildiamond

If the quality of your work doesn’t matter—just the speed at which you can produce it—then you’re not making art. You’re making content.

@picturebooksummit.bsky.social 2025 was fabulous! Left me inspired and tired (in a good way). Thanks to the team for putting together an amazing conference! #kidlit #childrensbooks #picturebooks

FRAUD ALERT: I have nothing to do with these phony books using my name on the cover. I have not written a memoir or partnered/inspired any cookbooks! Attempts to get Amazon to take these down have gone nowhere.

Weighing in on the egg conversation, do old eggs really peel more easily or was that just something my grandmother said? #eggs

So true!

I just read your interview with CanvasRebel. Over 7000 of these art pieces, wow! They're magical! #art #kidlit #natureart canvasrebel.com/meet-chelsey...

And let’s stop talking about sad books vs. funny books as an either/or situation. There’s a reason people laugh over the casseroles and pastries after a funeral. It’s healing. And kids’ books that deal with grief offer way more than just sadness.

Should I be upset that my 6yo granddaughter sings H-O-T-T-O-G-O at the top of her lungs at inopportune times or just happy she’s learning to spell? #kids

CSRs keep explaining in detail everything I already know while failing to address things that prevent me from accessing something - e.g. can't use the same browser when I have two accounts or one won't work; ditto email accts. Have to troubleshoot myself. Is everything DIY now? #customerservice

It can be hard to quickly determine how to react in the moment to help a person who is experiencing harassment. Here's a link to an organization that offers bystander training. They have tips on their website, but also free online trainings that I found helpful. righttobe.org/guides/bysta...

Hi @rachelshupin.bsky.social !

Hey graphic designers, does anyone still know what the shorthand FPO means or should I stop using it? #graphicdesign #graphics

A squealing possum disappears. An alarmed boy isn’t moving until he knows where it is. “He could have crawled into the dryer for a tumble…but HE’S PROBABLY GONE!” The siblings are not helpful. Still, the MC must take a ride that solves the mystery and brings a dreaded new roommate. #skypitch

@marziehabbas.bsky.social That was an amazing, informative, and inspiring presentation today for @12x12challenge.bsky.social! I appreciate your thorough, professional approach and your enthusiasm! You were great!!! #kidlit #writingcommunity #12x12

Wait, did I miss it? Is Apple's AI called iSpy? #ispy

Seems like all my searches these days are responded to by someone who isn’t listening to the question. #searchengines #AI

Can we please get a knife skills class for cooks with perpetually dull knives? 👩‍🍳🔪😉

Ever notice how arrogant Wordlebot is? Beat it soundly and analysis says: its guesses = skill; your guesses = luck. Sure, little Botty. You're smart. Probably suffering from AI imposter syndrome, bless your heart.

Ransom notes just aren't the same without the smell of rubber cement! I mean, I'm guessing...

@andreabrownlit.bsky.social I appreciate your stance regarding AI policies!

Looking at an agent search on QueryTracker wondering whether all the lightning bolts and clouds mean stormy weather ahead?😉 #amquerying #kidlit

It was a great day for a block party!

My ears are filled with fluid. On the upside, my appliances are running quietly. #sillysilverlining
