There's Always This Year, out 3/26/24. I am so proud of this book, and I feel very lucky that I got to write it. It would mean a lot to me if you would preorder it and also share it with folks who might be into it. Gratitude, always.

350 bookbags given out, over 250 free books, lots of free haircuts, whole lotta free food and — significantly lower in importance but still important — I actually got a lil ice cream before it ran out this year.

Back to school party is a wrap, I’m retiring to my couch for a day.

[Cbus Libraries @CbusLibraries]

Thanks to all the hands that made today possible. We gifted nearly 250 books to the community, many signed by authors like @JasonReynolds83. Special thanks to @NifMuhammad for willing such an incredible event into existence.
