Why it took my brain almost a month to feature Thomas Mullen after meeting him for the first time is beyond me (nor could I tell you where the Maya Angelou-esque woman came from). But, as usual, this situation was baffling and bizarre. Enjoy! 😃

#FunFact: I used to be an addictions therapist. My master's degree is in addictions treatment. There's a pretty nice hop, skip, and jump between that and editing books, but (oddly) editing books has turned out to provide exponentially more overt death threats. Just how my luck works!🤦🏾♀️

Your book doesn't need to be "for everybody." Just being a solid read for your target audience is difficult enough!

I see marketing a book as encompassing multiple aspects of developing, producing, and publishing it, and promoting the book is a single component of its marketing strategy. #AuthorLife

Working on children's books is such a lovely part of my job. Seeing the illustrations go from text descriptions to mockups to line art to polished images is a highlight of my professional life! 🎨

My mother has informed me that instead of a bottle of champagne when it happens, she‘ll treat herself to trying one of the $12 cinnamon rolls at a bougie place that just opened.
So now we’re on the clock for it to happen in less time than it takes a hipster bakery to open and close.
