Called @BalinBooks last week to order the first two books in the Meena series by @mskarlam for @viviankirkfield's #50PreciousWords literacy initiative. A chance to support #literacy #EpilepsyAwareness and a #Wisconsin author, all at once? I'll take it! ❤️📚

Non-native English Speakers, what’s a word from your language that you think is perfect that doesn’t have an English equivalent?
Take us to church.

Just sold all my hair to buy a watch chain for my bf for Christmas. Can’t wait for him to open it! It’s going to be the best Christmas ever

@mskarlam Meena Zee series concludes w/this 4th installment featuring softball & making new friends while maintaining a long distance friendship. Stands alone but why not just buy them all when pre-ordering this one? @SimonKIDS @SSEdLib Who’s next, #BookAllies? – at Wheaton, IL

It’s when empty notebooks cost more than a written book that I feel really depressed.

The SEE Initiative has secured 10,000 Say Gay stickers that we’re prepared to ship to high school seniors across Florida. We want you to wear them on your gowns as you cross the graduation stage, reminding underclassmen that we’re done with highschool, not the fight. (6/8)

There are kids like him right now across the US who are SCARED with the new legislation passing.
If they thought they were safe they no longer think that.
One of my mentee's shared that they feel like no one wants them to live.
I DO. Don't you?

Sexual Assault Awareness Month raises awareness about sexual violence, education about its true cause, how to prevent & how to support those who are affected by it.
Reposting because young people need this book during Sexual Assault Awareness month and every month. (1/3)

Don’t look at diversifying your world as something you have to do to give us something, look at it as giving yourself something. Enrich YOUR world.

If you love an indie bookstore, you love it because of the people who work there. The people who choose the books, the people who receive them, the people who shelve them, the people who hand them to you. No one loves a store. That's silly. You love a culture of shared book love.

I haven’t found my favorite read of 2021 on any of these “Best of” lists.
To the authors who aren’t seeing their books lauded and listed, remember your story could still be someone’s favorite book. And that’s pretty amazing. ❤️

ME, to my husband: I want you to help me stay on task. Maybe ask me, "Hey, how's the writing going?" when it looks like I'm getting distracted.
HUSBAND, 2 minutes later: Hey, how's the writing going?
ME: ...
HUSBAND: ...
ME: ...that's none of your business.
