My picture book, ONE CAN BE, shares the joy of @LtlFreeLibrary boxes. To celebrate the book’s release, author friends from all 50 states will add a copy to a LFL near them, and I’ll share the photos. The state parade starts in Madison, Wisconsin at a LFL on East Mifflin

‘Tis the season to organize the pantry and check all expiration dates before the adult children judgementally return to the nest.

Writing is 10% words and 90% deciding which words don’t belong.

Janet believes all stories should bring joy. And that sharing stories spreads joy. She also sent me a picture of nearby kids enjoying books from her new LFL including ONE CAN BE. Janet not only writes books for kids, but also leads classes to help others do the same. 2/2

Wow! Janet Fox not only added my book ONE CAN BE to a @LtlFreeLibrary, she added it to a LFL she built in her Montana yard after I asked her about my book. That's dedication. 1/2 #onecanbe #50states #montana #littlefreelibrary #kidlit #picturebooks

This Sunday at Madison’s Garver Feed Mill, a bunch of kidlit authors are gathering for Parent Child Happy Hour. There will be: - Crafts and storytimes for the kids. - Food and drink for kids and adults. - Books to purchase and get signed. And you can say hello to me. You

My husband and I were just discussing this.

And, because it’s important to have priorities in life, I need to say that I’m very happy with how my hair looked on TV.

Madisonians: If you’ve wondered whether Susan Simon and Brady Mallory are as nice in real life as they seem on News 3 Now / Channel 3000, the answer is: “Yes. Absolutely.” Thanks to them for featuring ONE CAN BE and me. https://t.co/0k7BvN5tpy #kidlit #madison

Jenn’s books have received the @ALALibrary Schneider Family Honor, the Schneider Family Award, and the Theodore Geisel Honor. She’s also parachuted off a mountain. (Yes, really.) And rafted an underground river to see the famous glow worms of New Zealand.

So. @JennBailey is cool. She put my picture book, ONE CAN BE, in a Kansas @LtlFreeLibrary. Jenn’s a baker, @LEGO_Group builder and author. See her dog, Oliver? Her @Chiefs T-shirt? Cool. ONE CAN BE is in 23 states. 27 left. #onecanbe #50states #Kansas #littlefreelibrary #kidlit

My book -- ONE CAN BE -- is now at @sun_library. Thanks to the foundation board for ushering it into the building. If you live elsewhere, your library may have the book. If not, they can order it for you or request it through interlibrary loan. #library #newbook #librarycard

Y'all, this talk might be magic. I cut nearly 40 words from a rhyming manuscript that needed to be pared down. And there may be more yet to go.

And @kendahenthorn added ONE CAN BE and her own book BAA BAA TAP SHEEP to a LFL in Mustang. ONE CAN BE, a book about LFLs has now been added to LFLs in 22 states. 28 to go!

Two Oklahoma authors put ONE CAN BE into @LtlFreeLibrary boxes. Traci Sorell added the book on the Mvskoke Nation Reservation in Tulsa. She also added her own book, WE ARE GRATEFUL, and INDIAN NO MORE, which she wrote with Charlene Willing McManis. #onecanbe #50states #oklahoma

My fellow potatoes, don’t limit yourself to the couch. Be a bath potato. Be a 'reading a good book on a hammock' potato. Be a 'faking your own death and disappearing to an island somewhere because this is all a LOT' potato. You contain multitudes and you are a valid potato.

What’s a trip to the Twin Cities without stopping by @NextChapterMN, @wildrumpusbooks and @RedBalloonBooks to sign ONE CAN BE and other titles? Indie bookstores are the best! #twincities #kidlit #signedbooks

I had fun chatting with Kare 11 TV today about ONE CAN BE, my new picture book from @BeamingBooksMN. Here’s the clip. https://t.co/hQwlr8OAZw

Fall in Wisconsin.

Sometimes, being alone is where imagination begins. ONE CAN BE reminds readers it’s OK to be by themselves. Because even when they’re one, they’re part of something more. A comforting read for quiet dreamers who find magic in their own company. https://t.co/y0BR3bBcv0

Nearly every male romance book hero is 6-4. In reality, only 3.9 percent of US men are 6-2 or taller. Discuss.
