Completing Mr. Schu's sentences (and reading his book, The Gift of Story) made me think deeply about the way I work. And I am so very grateful for that, because that changed my lens and how I focus it on all of my projects.

An image of the illustrated cover of Socks & Secret Quests by Triona Murphy, with art by James Firnhaber. The cover shows an image of four pre-teens standing in a semi-circle as though in preparation for battle. A cozy cottage glows warmly in the background. Gnarled trees without leaves dot the hills and landscape around it.

If you know picture books, you know Melissa Sweet. She’s illustrated more than 100 books and written several, as well.

She’s won two Caldecott honors, been on the NYT bestsellers list, and won a bevy of other awards

Thought I'd be finishing a big ghostwriting project today but alas, the day was stolen by flooding in the laundry room. Will be working this weekend again, but I'm excited to get back to my co-author #MG novel with @racheltoalson.bsky.social next week. #writing
