@TamiWritesStuff@scbwi@trapublishing@simonschuster Thank you so much! It's a dream come true. Even better, I am also now a mom to an amazing 2-year-old, and she enjoys reading books like "All Because You Matter" with me! It's going to be surreal to read her my book soon, too.
I know @TamiWritesStuff was addressing 1k+ writers, but it felt like she was speaking directly to me and Waverly, the anxious albatross in my first #pb manuscript:
"Fear clips our wings and robs us of our ability to take flight...give yourself permission to launch."

@TamiWritesStuff Hi Tami! Only 3 months after your @scbwi talk, Waverly's story got picked up and is getting ready to launch April 23: "Waverly Braves the Breeze: The Story of a Galapagos Albatross," illustrated by Rosie Eve, published @trapublishing and distributed by @simonschuster! Thank you!
@PatZMiller @MysterytomeT At the rate you're writing/publishing I'll have her birthday and Christmas PZM book gifts covered for the next several years :)
My littlest niece LOVES books by Pat Zietlow Miller, so for her 2nd birthday this summer we gifted her two more: REMARKABLY YOU and BE KIND. Today, I was thrilled to pick up her Christmas gift: BE STRONG. Thanks, @PatZMiller and @MysterytomeT! Lovely story and beautiful art!
@RebekahLowell @AvianHaven The top right photo is about the age of the blue jay that fell high out of our pine tree today. Now it's in the hands of a wildlife rehabilitator. So thankful for the people who do this rescue work!
