Well, this was a nice Friday surprise! I love knowing kids read and enjoyed my story enough to vote for it. That’s why we do this…for the readers!! Thanks to @KaileiPew for the huge amount of work you do for the #kidlit community!
I revised a story with @PatZMiller's Puzzling Out Your Picture Book presentation in mind and I love the results. Thanks Pat and @JustinRColon for hosting!
When I began my school visit today I had no idea I would become the subject of one of their stories. I bet you never saw those twists coming! #schoolvisits #picturebooks #kidlit

I have a roundup of links I’ve found interesting. And I’m updating on my Poetry Month project. #poetryfriday marcieatkins.com/2024/04/26/poe…
Explaining stocks to 8 (don’t ask). Me- “So daddy owns a teeny, tiny part of the company.” 8- “Which part? The bathroom?”
Thrilled to meet educators at the Massachusetts Reading Association conference yesterday & sign copies of 16 Words: William Carlos Williams and "The Red Wheelbarrow" to use w/the @WitWisdomELA curriculum!! #PoetryMonth #WilliamCarlosWilliams #redwheelbarrow #ELA @randomhousekids

Wow! April started off with intro author calls, and it's ending with announcements! So excited to have the chance to rep @MichelleSKenned!
My Vision Board is getting fulfilled today! After two grueling weeks of having to keep quiet (and it hasn't been easy, believe me!) I am THRILLED to FINALLY announce that I'm officially #Agented by @MaraCobbWrites with Martin Literary Management. #KidLit #PB #AmWriting #SCBWI
Lucky me! I won a gorgeous LOOK notebook from cut-paper artist Samantha Cotterill—for pre-ordering her gorgeous picture-book collaboration with writer @Gabi_A_Snyder. Such a gorgeous book for young readers, about paying attention to the little things in life!
Beyond blessed to have my family by my side… Yesterday when I picked my kids up from school, my 7yo son’s first question was if I sold any books and how many. He’s asked multiple times since: “Can we work on the Pippa Potter business? I want to help sell your books!”
Couldn’t be happier for my CP and friend! 😍 Huge congratulations to you and Mara! We need more funny books in the world!!!! 😃🙌✨
I can't believe it's my turn to share some good news! I am now repped by @MaraCobbWrites!!!! Not enough room in a single post to thank all the kidlit peeps who have helped me along the way. But shout out to @HollieWolverton & @mgtaitken who have been with me from the start.
This was one of the hardest weeks of my life, but I just interviewed a female entrepreneur in Ukraine over Zoom for an article I #AmWriting for her alumni magazine. Seeing her resilience as she talked over the air raid alarms was just the inspiration I needed this morning. ❤️🇺🇦
I definitely had to brush up on my physics, astronomy, & cosmology. @HenryLHerz mariacmarshall.com/single-post/th… Mercè López @tilburyhouse #kidlit
Hooray! I'm excited to see DON'T HUG DOUG in Spanish! 💕
We love Spanish editions! We are taking a moment this #BookBirthday for the April picture book releases that we are so excited about 🥳📚 @meganprmadison @CarrieFinison @danimal_1980
Thrilled to announce that I'm now represented by the amazing and kind @lindsaydauld of Writers House! 🎉 Excited to begin this journey together!!!!! Somebody pinch me!!
