“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

No real line. Great poll workers. Took about 30 minutes start to finish. If you're in Harris County, Texas and need to vote, Zwink Elementary is quick! #Vote2024

The @TheJusticeDept assured me that every Texan will have the chance to cast their ballot & have their vote count. Today, I’m here with Reps from around Harris County to encourage you to go out and vote. We’re here to ensure that no one obstructs or interferes with your rights.

Hardcover printer sample of THE LOSTING FOUNTAIN just showed up. IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL. All my love and gratitude to editor Ardyce Alspach, cover designer Melissa Farris, and interior designer Rich Hazelton for turning my strange, dark story into a gorgeous book. Out 12/31/2024

We all face Writing Resistance—those days when writing feels much harder than it usually does. So how can we jump-start our creativity those days and turn a blank page into a written page? I have three tips for you in this video. ▶️ youtu.be/GGm_mGJ3MdQ

Very proud to be on this list. We need leaders who care for ALL, see value in ALL, and don't ban books.
Very proud to join over 700 writers in endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris and Gov. Tim Walz. There's too much on the line to sit this election out. Take action today at go.kamalaharris.com. And folks, please make a plan to vote: vote.org

It's been a wild week but I can finally share that I'll be reading THE SCARIEST KITTEN IN THE WORLD on the White House lawn today! It's part of @POTUS & @FLOTUS's Hallo-READ celebration, and I couldn't be more honored to be invited. (Photos to come later on!)

Are there any Canadian teachers, librarians, or booksellers who would be interested in a physical galley of THE GHOSTS OF BITTERFLY BAY? 👀🖤

Writing Books for young (and young at heart) readers has given me the chance to travel to some wonderful places–so it was even more meaningful yesterday to see THE GRAY & other books with my hometown library stamp-thank you San Diego Public  Library! @SDPublicLibrary

An incredible day at @tweensread in Houston on Saturday - just the most special event. Thank you @BlueWillowBooks. This photo says way more than I can put into words (and this was not the first kiddo to nearly make me cry). I mean it, writing for kids is a gift and privilege.

Tis the season!
I just found this spooky middle-school story teller/author Ally Malinenko. I read This Appearing House. Scary & a beautiful message at the end. I just started Ghost Girl. #pd4uandme @AllyMalinenko
