Getting creative juices flowing with @HighlightsFound in the "Why Horror?" webinar for middle grade with @AllyMalinenko. I'm 1 month post-partum (a special kind of spooky), and so needed this inspo for WIP. #kidlit

I found a website that puts all independent #bookstores in the U.S. on a map. Pretty, pretty cool rabbit hole to go down! It’s been helpful to my book journey to identify local bookstores in my area: https://t.co/vEoQ3vfdjM
