It was so cool meeting one of my writing idols, Joanna Ho, tonight at my library's AAPI event. Joanna was so encouraging as I shared the many rejections that I received since putting my story on submission and told me to keep on going!

Can't believe it was just 1 year ago when I was selected as a 2025 PB Party Finalist. So many dreams happened due to @mindyalyseweiss.bsky.social and her team. I signed with my lovely agent, @kaitlynleann17.bsky.social at Bradford Literary Agency and met some many amazing writers!

WNDB stands alongside over 100 grassroots and national advocacy organizations, publishers, booksellers, parent groups, and professional associations in opposition to H.R. 7661. Use the EveryLibrary action center to contact your representative(s): 📖 bit.ly/HR7661-action

Red graphic with a white note taped to the center that says “We Stand in Opposition to H.R. 7661”. Beneath the title is a subtitle that says, “A joint statement plus action items”.

Statement in opposition to H.R. 7661: “The freedom to speak and to read is a fundamental principle of the United States of America. That is why we have joined together — parents, students, educators, library workers, authors, free expression advocates, booksellers, and publishers — to stand in support of our nation’s school-aged children and teens and in opposition to H.R. 7661. H.R. 7661, if passed, will compel nationwide book censorship. It confuses obscenity with identity and stigmatizes vulnerable young people, particularly trans children and teens, based on who they are. It will continue to drain funding from our already underfunded schools and libraries. And it will threaten the creativity and critical thinking that are vital to education in the U.S.”

Statement in opposition to H.R. 7661: “A core principle of democracy, freedom, and liberty is that the government does not choose what people get to read and who they get to be. This country has a long history of protecting our freedoms. H.R. 7661 goes against this. Together, we say that this bill goes against the U.S. Constitution, local self-determination, access to books, and a society that is welcoming for everyone, no matter who they are. Our schools deserve better than this. Our children and teens — all of them, without exception — deserve better than this. We urge the U.S. House of Representatives to vote NO on H.R. 7661 or, better yet, to not take it up for a vote at all.”

We are not immune to what’s happening in Minnesota — and all across this nation. As 🧊 continues to terrorize and target the most vulnerable among us, we're grateful for the indie bookstores in Minnesota that have shown up for their communities, providing support & resources to Minnesotans in need.

Not only do we need diverse books, but we need to defend diverse stories and storytellers. Join us in fighting back. 🧵 📚 bit.ly/DefendOurStories

Bright blue graphic that says, “Defend Our Stories” at the top. Beneath the title text is a smaller tagline that says, “They’re banning diverse books. We’re fighting back. Join us.” Along the right-hand side of the graphic is an illustration depicting a series of book spines, and within some of the book covers are ladders and staircases leading into the pages.

Wow, this NIV by Elizabeth Acevedo gave me chills. I loved its spirited MC, Xiomara, the images conjured by its poetic language, and the theme of finding truth through the stories we share. Read it. Even if you don't like poetry, read it. It will open up your ❤️.

@rebeccacaprara.bsky.social I just finished reading Spin and it blew me away. I will be thinking of it and Arachne's journey for a long time. As a writer exploring the format of novel in verse, the language and imagery was exquisite.

Well hello there 2025, the year that will officially make me a published picture book author. Can't wait for the kids to read my books, CRACK GOES THE CASCARON and my pb bio ALBERTO SALAS PLAYS PAKA PAKA CON LA PAPA :) Feeling like a kid waiting for her birthday party.

Cover of the picture book biography Alberto Salas Plays Paka Paka con la Papa, written by Sara Fajardo and illustrated by Juana Martinez Neal. Main character Alberto is holding a potato in front of his eye, he is wearing a yellow coat, and in the background purple potato flowers blossom.

Cover of the picture book Crack Goes the Cascarón, written by Sara Fajardo and illustrated by Rocio Arreola Mendoza. At the center main character, Toti, is leaping, with cascarones (confetti filled eggs) in his hands. Confetti flying everywhere while his surrounding family reacts with smiles and laughter.
