After a recent hospital stay, I received a WONDERFUL gift from my critique partners (aka, the Glitterpoo Penguins). There's nothing like a good book to help with healing all manner of things. My writing friends know my heart, and I am forever grateful for having them in my life❤️

@RWeberWrites Hang in there! I got over 600 rejections on my first 8 manuscripts, then published 5 MG novels. And now I'm back in the query trenches. You're not alone--stick with it 😊.

@FarnsworthK @penguinkids Thanks so much! I sub for K-8, and it's always fun to see what books are in the classroom libraries.

It's a great day to read @alliago's THE JUNETEENTH STORY!

[Jessica Lawson @JS_Lawson]

5 blazing @goodreads stars for @CStarrRose's THE BURNING SEASON! I'll be re-reading this beautiful novel-in-verse aloud with my kiddos, and remind them of the time we were packed up to evacuate because of a wildfire when we lived in Colorado. https://t.co/ZU6umSUviB

@DustiBowling I am so sorry! I've been in this situation before, and it's so scary. You're in my thoughts!

Happiest of middle grade book birthdays to @CStarrRose's THE BURNING SEASON and Ann Braden's INTO THE RAPIDS! I'm very much looking forward to reading both of these!
