Thank you to @jasminewarga for writing 'Other Words for Home.' It was educational, emotional, inspiring and an important story that needs to be available for middle grade kids! https://t.co/fKHcOxLkVJ

This seems like an encouraging read we all need! I have missed President Obama's eloquence. #APromisedLand

I wrote my book for young peopleâas an invitation to bring about, through hard work, determination, and a big dose of imagination, an America that finally aligns with all that is best in us.

Wow- I flew through reading Nyxia because of the great characters, action, suspense and writing! #MGLit It felt so real and also like science-fiction at the exact same time. Thanks to @Scott_Thought for a great read... looking forward to the next 2 books!

I got to read the exciting Nyxia book at work today! Love it when that happens. First few lines got me hooked with imagery- âEach of them wears the same charcoal suit. It looks like someone threaded smoke into formal wear.â #mglit @Scott_Thought Iâm loving it!
Thanks to Mr. Ameris and Ms. Barrett for bringing your classes down. All 6th-grade brick and mortar students have gone through library orientation! I love it for lots of reasons- mainly because I get to SSR with yâall! #HCSLibraryMedia

I definitely see why @gordonkorman is a popular #mgbooks writer! Recommended as a light read for educators as well as middle schoolers.

Just happened to be wearing my âbe niceâ shirt when making a book talk for #BullyPreventionMonth. Also happen to be reading The Unteachables which *spoiler* I think might have a moral of accepting yourself as you are and standing up for what/who you believe in!

I probably enjoy filling the library with big pics of authors more than the students do! Itâs super creepy when you first walk into the dark library in the morning and there are just like 15 faces staring at you. đ
It was great having classes back in the library, reading print and ebooks! Yes, they are sitting with authors at each table to ensure social distancing but maybe also feel a little less lonely. đ #HCSLibrarymedia #IWishJasonReynoldsWasReallyHangingOutInTheLib

Wearing black in solidarity of the 3 lovely people in S.C. Ed who have died from COVID this school year. I am also contacting my legislators to reflect on whatâs working and whatâs not! #SCforEd #inmemoryofdemi #inmemoryofbigpete #inmemoryofwendell

I am happy to announce that I will be the librarian at Black Water Middle in the fall. It is difficult to leave such fantastic Early College High coworkers but I know this is a good step in my career. Love yâall Trailblazers! Looking forward to becoming a #BWMS Bear!

Reflecting on 8 yrs in #HCSLibraryMedia, I choose this because I love collaborating/supporting teachers, finding creative approaches to celebrate reading, and getting books in the hands of teens! Books change who you are if you're reading the right voice for you. #HCSInfluencers

Reflecting on the importance of making Ss feel a sense of belonging (rather than having to fit in) at the library from Brene Brown talk, watched with the #HCSInfluencers #HCSLibraryMedia

In a #mindful classroom, students need dignity and freedom as foundations before invention and agency can be explored! Hopefully students get that dignity and freedom from teachers AND fellow students for a truly supportive feeling. #HCSinfluencers Taken from @MindWise_CK book!
