Season 2 of VAMPIRINA TEENAGE VAMPIRE starts on Disney Channel tonight at 8 p.m. I saw episodes 5 and 6 filmed, so I'm super excited to see what leads up to those.

If there is any confusion or ignorance with any of your posts, I generally believe it is mine.

Mine was Vermont for a long time, then moved to Delaware, then MD. My dad was from New Hampshire so I thought it might have had something to do with that.

It said I'm most like Maryland--I grew up in Northern Virginia so that makes a lot of sense to me. Washington DC was the closest big city and I was just a few miles across the Potomac from DC. So I say the quiz nailed it.

Do you know how The Crossing has done as a program, overall? Has it been considered successful?

It actually felt okay around 5:30 (up with puppy, not by choice) but it's getting bad now. This week is supposed to suck. But next week should be nice. Please GOD!

On a social media break. I'd say to find me through my website, but I don't imagine you will, LOL, but do if you want to!

Want to improve your rhyming picture book? Sudipta Bardhan-Quallen and I are teaching an online webinar "From Forced to Verse" for Boyds Mills September 15 and 17. We dig pretty deep and it's a lot of fun. Come check it out

Just here to post this again like I do every year, not only because Douglass was one of the founding philosophers of American liberty but because I am so moved by the kids Frederick Douglass’ descendants deliver “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July”

Two fabulous Zoom events today: 1) SCBWI state of children's publishing webinar from Deborah Halverson and 2) a Whale Rock Workshop on psychic distance from Deborah Noyes. Both were outstanding.

Got an email today offering to connect me with an agent so that I can sell books to Big 5 publishers and maybe even to Hollywood. I don't think they did their research.

On June 19, 1865, Union General Gordon Granger delivered an order to finally enforce the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing 250,000 enslaved Black Texans. 22 years after Juneteenth, on Aug. 15, 1887, that former slaves founded Eatonville – "the Town the Freedom Built.” Happy Juneteenth!

Charlottesville Barnes and Noble invited me to be their guest at a summer reading event on Saturday, June 20, at 1 p.m. I'll read VAMPIRINA BALLERINA and other books; and there'll be crafts and dancing and fun! Come on out!

After 39 years of being afraid to fly, I flew to LA for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It was GREAT. I loved it. Now where will I go next???

Oooh, I always think when I'm a zillionaire that I would get my kids settled and then give the rest away to charity, but honestly, a free press is so important. GREAT IDEA.

If they hadn't taken it back, it would have counted against future royalties. So I wasn't getting that money no matter what alas.

Anne Marie Pace @annemariepace.bsky.social · 27/05/2026

One time, in real life, not in a dream, one of my publishers put $3000 in my bank account. But then they took it back. Sigh.

Not sure I can get to 10 without veering into classical: The Police 2x The Go-gos 3x U2 Billy Joel Bruce Hornsby and the Range Journey Genesis Toto Flock of Seagulls INXS Muse I did it! Some of those were opening acts, but I'm counting them.
