@ANNELAMOTT People who live in small, rural towns (like mine-Trump signs everywhere) who literally are afraid of everything they are not familiar with or do not want to take the time to understand. And, also conservative Christians who think he's some sort of savior??? It's sad.

@moniza_hossain I can't even believe it. 😭

If you want to become a successful author, the most important thing ISN'T:
-to get an MFA
-to build a huge social media following
-to make connections w/ people in the industry

It’s actually quite simple: 🧵

Want to know a secret? 🤫 I hid my kids inside IF YOU ARE AN ARTIST! They think it's pretty cool that they get to say they're in a book! #illustration #ifyouareanartist #childrensbooks #picturebooks #kidlit #kidlitcommunity #kidlitartists #kidlitartist

@bshgarcia I love it in psychological thrillers, and a few people have mentioned it making them feel "anxious" or "on-edge", so maybe it lends itself
more to that genre because of this. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I don’t think a photo can convey how beautifully illustrated, designed, and crafted this picture book is. IF YOU ARE AN ARTIST by Meg Auchenbach and Peter Pauper Press is an empowering ode to artistic children everywhere! #kidlit #amreading @PeterPauperPres @MegAuchenbach

@edmeadart Teaching art! I mean, the pay isn't great, but it's decent, there is (in most states) a pension, and it's fun. It's just tough to find creative energy for your own projects after work- especially if you have kids or a family.
