Hooray for SUPER BOBA CAFE 2 by @nidhiart.bsky.social ! My 5th graders have been dying for book two, and they were *so* delighted to hear the wait was finally over. 📚👍 Jam-packed with action, underground adventure, and, of course ... boba! 🧋♥️ #kidlit #5thgrade ooks

So happy to be part of the @santaclarasccoe library camp! The bookseller @hicklebees was there and it was my first time signing Super Boba Cafe 2: Home Sea Home! A few weeks early, too! 😍 (If you come to the fairylandca event on Sept 20 they will have early copies too!)

I worked diligently on my deadline for the thumbnail manuscript of my first YA graphic novel, Unfinished. The process of making a book is loooong and thumbnails are an important milestone.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

More than 16 million Americans are at risk of losing their health care because Republicans in Congress are rushing to pass a bill that would cut federal funding for Medicaid and weaken the Affordable Care Act.

I worked at Planned Parenthood. They diagnose cancers while still treatable. They help women decide what birth control works for them. They help those working through mental health challenges. Defunding them just harms people who already struggle to find places to get care.

You can’t see me bc I’m holding a flag but guys I live in a 2k person extremely rural town in one of the reddest counties of WI. So many people showed up there was a line all the way to the highway. I often feel a bit afraid due to my identity in this area but #nokings brought out so many

Back in December when I knew divorce was imminent, I made this list of possible income sources. I applied to grants for murals and other art projects. In addition to working on my book deadlines and presentations, I used my stressed time to research and learn how to write proposals.

My library event was full. The excited kids and attentive grown ups fill my heart. But events in the bay area usually end with someone asking me to explain why AI is okay. I can't quiet their concerns. It is unethical and harmful to artists. And I am tired of talking about it.

At the link below, you can learn about the case being argued at SCOTUS today, which will surely impact LGBTQ+ kids and families, and may also be devastating to authors of LGBTQ+ books in general. I'm not exactly optimistic, but you never know. I'm aiming to not be depressed in advance.
