You can still do it, just need that unique spin! #KidLitChat

PB horror! Like age appropriate, of course, but not too cutesy either. #KidLitChat

I think that people respond to similar things in the environment and the muse puts an idea out into the ether and multiple people pick it up. But not everyone finishes the project in the same timeframe and everyone that does use it has their own take on the idea. #KidLitChat

Yes, always go weird! #KidLitChat

I keep an eye out for things but really only pay attention to trends to determine what I shouldn't write. Like I'd choose to make my character different than the current popular animal (ex. axolotl). Unless my idea was just too killer to resist. But I'd know it might be a hard sell. #KidLitChat

Maybe get one of those airhorns for if they get any bad ideas? And if they get one of those bad ideas report to Dept of Wildlife. www.ndow.org/blog/living-...

I'm on the food bank donation train. I donated to St Mary's Food Bank & the Lost Our Home Pet Rescue Pet Food Bank. Don't forget that if your employer matches charitable donations to submit for that & double the impact!

Dialogue, sometimes a conversation, sometimes a character's voice.

I was around 11 different cats today and didn't take a single Caturday photo.

I love it!!

I've mostly been decorating the inside of my stomach with Halloween, but I did pick up a cute lil pumpkin and ghost with an air plant. I usually try to stick to plants I can water infrequently but it was too cute, so I'll try the weekly misting as instructed.

Frankenstein frosted donut. I ordered this apple pie filled Frankie but ended up with a vampire kissed donut leaking red jam.

Nice choice! I loved Forever Knight.

I hate mine. I fully expect that at some point I will decide I don't care about the hassle anymore and will see what happens without them.

Lol. That's why I have the retainer. That 1.5 years of Invisalign means my teeth will stay the hell in place.
