Good job, mom! Boys are often little romantics but they’re afraid to show it. 😊
The Little House! Be still my heart.
Loved Pippi! I wanted to live in Villavillakula.
I was all Judy Blume all the time. My favorite was Starring Sally J. Freedman as herself. To say that Judy Blume influenced my writing is the understatement of the century. (I also had a thing for witch books. Blackbird Pond, anyone?)
Thank you!!! It’s basically all my favorite things. 😂
Plus it looks amazing!
HA! Me too.

Agree! Please please wait for the right fit. I'd be heartbroken if these books got watered down.
Me too! I've only read Song of the Blackbird! But the @kylelukoff.bsky.social is on my TBR. Looks like I've got some reading to do.
I missed this one! Checking it out right now!
This was so fun! Thank you so much for having me and I can’t wait to chat again (another book with Scott and Millie perhaps?).
This was so fun! We didn’t mean to talk so long but the last part veered into the so-called middle grade crisis and how parents view graphic novels so … we just had a LOT to talk about in addition to The Scott Fenwick Diaries.
Gulp. This is the most useful round-up of info I’ve read so far. Thanks for sharing.
This was SUCH a good conversation! Very solutions oriented!

👏👏👏 can’t wait to watch!
Thanks so much for telling me! Woo hoo!
I’m grateful to Substack for helping me process this bullsh*t nightmare. kristinnilsenbooks.substack.com/p/after-annu...
Last night at the vigil I fantasized about asking the purchaser of an assault weapon WHY they needed one. They will say it's my right. Yes, but WHY do you need it? I played the whole thing out in my head, pushing until they admitted either that they didn't need or planned to kill a bunch of ppl.
I was there! Didn’t see you in the crowd but it was comforting knowing you were there.
I love this city so much. The dystopia of it all is crushing me.
In my latest Substack piece, I share the deep thoughts of 11 yo Shazi —who came to my Taylor Swift Journaling class so full of words I thought she’d bust at the seams. Instead of shushing her, I thought I’d give her the mic. Enjoy!

Alt-tex for image: author sits on a couch holding a copy of her book, The Scott Fenwick Diaries. The book cover is yellow, featuring the face of a girl holding cut out hearts in front of her eyes. In each heart is a silhouette: one is a boy with a backpack and the other is a bulldog.
It’s official … The Scott Fenwick Diaries is launched. And this little middle grade romcom about a crush, a bulldog, a bar mitzvah and a sleeve of Donettes belongs to all of you instead of just me. Please hold my hand as the reviews roll in… stay tuned!

Cover of The Scott Fenwick Diaries by Kristin Nilsen
This Judy Blume-inspired book about a 7th grader's first crush is both hilarious and wise and will be LOVED by young teens and by Gen X librarians and moms. It's on the younger end of #youngteenlit and recommended for collections serving middle schoolers. Thanks @kristinnilsen.bsky.social #tlsky
Congratulations!👏👏👏
Highlight reel from the book launch of my second novel for middle grade and young teen lit readers! It was a banger. Thanks to all for the incredible support — The Scott Fenwick Diaries belongs to all of you now!
