@MandyHubbard Yes, the vanishing, and they filmed the abduction scene at the North Bend Chevron and I was never able to get gas there again. Too creepy
@aletheaspiridon YES. I thought of a great idea and title for a book yesterday: Seventeen Spells and How They Failed, and now I'm like GREAT I have to think of seventeen spells, but eight spells just doesn't have the same ring to it
Seriously, #pokemongo? How am I supposed to catch 25 electric types when there are basically only 5 different ones to catch? Stuck at home (of course) and been running incense all...day...long. Never going to happen. Sad, sad, sad face.
Super excited that Time Bomb, the first book in my new series The Collapse, is finally available! Wish I was more familiar with twitter and could show you the whole cover. Click the image to see it in all its gorgeousness.
@silverwood4fun Your gluten free options in this waterpark are very limited and I'm stuck with this as my option. Not that other lines are any better. My husband is in a burger line with our kids. His phone battery died, but I'm pretty sure they're at least through their line.

I have always been a huge fan of Dolly Parton, ever since I saw 9 to 5 in the theater when I was in 2nd grade. And any time she appears in the news, my enduring love for her is reaffirmed
I read #anightdivided by Jennifer A. Nielsen to the kids over the weekend. It was difficult to put down. Brilliantly done. I remember when the Berlin Wall came down. This book takes you to when it went up. The characters are believable & the plot is both chilling and exciting.
the *worst* way to get kids interested in books is to force them to read books they don’t like.
if they like stories about wizards, don’t make them read novels about a middle-aged man having an affair. readers are made by finding a story and falling in love with it.
