After a terrific meeting with illustrator Dan Fiore, we dragged our author Anne Spielberg @anne49bsky.bsky.social through slush and mud to soak in some American history at Old North Bridge today. She was such a good sport!

Anne's children's book, The Iceberg & The Penguin, is due out in 2027.

Savoring a heartwarming day at the Ukrainian Christmas Market, where we SOLD OUT of @veretskiy.bsky.social's Tales of the Wandering Mists, Book 1! People wanted to know about the translator, how we met Oleg, when Book 2 will come out, the audiobook, all the things.

Find some amazing gifts at this Saturday's @uccnorg Ukrainian Christmas Market in Boylston, MA - about 30 minutes from Boston. This year's event benefits Ukrainian children impacted by the war.

Crows remember faces for lifetimes and carry those memories through generations. Folklore called them messengers of fate. Science now quietly agrees. #LegendaryWednesday

Skittles, ancestor of modern bowling, was once played in churchyards before it was banned for “disorderly mirth.” Some said the sound of falling pins echoed like tiny thunderclaps calling rain. #FolkloreThursday

In ancient Greece, Hypnos, god of sleep, lived in a dark cave where the sun never reached. Poppies and night-blooming flowers grew at its mouth, their scent said to calm even the gods. #FolkyFriday

MEET THE CAST of Tales of the Wandering Mists, Book 2!

We have been able to get a sneak peek at the second book of this trilogy, “The Man with Four Shadows.” This will be another full cast of amazing characters we haven’t met yet, but we do know who at least a few of them are going to be…

Sounds great! You might have us mixed up with someone else, but glad to hear of this!
Met new friends and learned loads. Hurrah for the @ipne.org

🚨SPOILER ALERT!!🚨(But it matters, we promise)

At the end of “The Tales of the Wandering Mists” we watch Lisa leave This World hand-in-hand with The Great Craftsman; but that’s not where Book 2 picks up. It picks up with a different story entirely…or at least it seems that way.
