BEHIND THE WRITING — AN INSECT JOURNEY Poems to Take You on an Insect Journey began as a surprise for my best friend, Sayde. One little idea became a book of beetles, ladybugs, humor, and unexpected adventures. Sometimes the smallest ideas grow into something wonderful. #Poetry #BookSky

BEST BOOK SERIES I'VE READ THIS YEAR! Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman blew me away! Chaos, dark humor, a talking cat, and surprising heart. The audiobooks are incredible, and Jeff Hays brings every character to life! Have you read or listened to the series? #BookSky #DungeonCrawlerCarl

I grew up in a remote town in Alaska, and I now live outside of Washington, D.C. I was talking to my parents, who were beyond excited that the sun had returned. Granted, it starts with gaining seven seconds of daylight per day, Anyone else have an experience like this? #alaska #livinginalaska
