Due to some sad and personal life events, I'm back to looking for a lit agent. If you find me here, I'm a speech path with a growing Instagram and YouTube following. My first picture book came out from an indie publisher in 2024 and has done well. Cheers!!! #kidlit #amwriting #picturebook
Alright…it here’s my #50preciouswords entry for @viviankirkfield.bsky.social . Cheers all!
Scene: E-learning day due to snow.
10 yo: ::frustrated:: I honestly don’t even know why I need to know math.
Me: You might need it for work one day.
10 yo: ::somehow aware of all my insecurities as an adult:: You have a job and you don’t know math.

It’s not about no screen time. It’s about BETTER screen time. Follow if you want to know what crazy stuff is out there and what your kid should watch instead.
This is a clip from the YouTube Channel, Mister Clay. More recs on the way.

3️⃣ Engaging the Whole Body: Music gets kids clapping, stomping, and moving. This physical activity helps release energy and calm the nervous system.

My 8 yo daughter: Can we listen to @alyankovic.bsky.social ?
10 and 12 yo brothers: Yeah!!!!
Me, smiling knowing I’ve nailed this parenting thing: Of course my children.
My 10 year old: “I feel like after years and years of being an expert child, I can say that if you tell a grownup you’re bored, they will find a chore for you.”

What does screentime do to a toddler’s brain?
Delays development—takes away from active play
Speech challenges—real conversation > cartoons
Overstimulation—harder to focus/calm down
Reduced attention spans—limits creativity
Balance is key: More play, less screen! #ParentingTips #Toddlers

One of the best parts about my publisher was them understanding the mission of my book. You see, when I create I try to do it with intentionality. Is the intention to be fun? Educational?
Heres a preview of mine.
‘I Hear Nature’ is out for pre-order now. Cheers y’all!!!

About 2 years ago a company reached out to acquire some of my content for their tablets.
Today a patient I haven’t seen in years texted me from the library. The device they checked out had one of my vids on it. So cool.

Wrote 200 words last night for a new #picturebook idea. Hoping this becomes my new normal.
In truth I could probably make a living whisper reading books on YouTube. But what better book to start in with than one devoted to onomatopoeias?!?
Anyway, my #picturebook ‘I Hear Nature’ is out for pre-order now. It’s a lot of fun to read with your little one. #amwriting
Okay #picturebook #writers what’s one idea you had today…..
Now this is interesting
Where do you write your ideas? Do you have multiple notes? A little book by your bed? #amwriting #childrensbooks
