A SLOW GROWING MASS OF TANGIBLE THOUGHTS

It happened! It was amazing and it will be archived in the book for all to see. I spoke with the REAL, Joy, Shelley, and Darryl and we talk about our lives now, and the memories of a three week trip that we all remember fondly over 30 years ago. Scan the QR code in the book and you’ll be able to watch this wonderful one hour reunion and get the whole scoop for years to come

Congrats to my pal @lisayee1 for winning a Newbery Honor for Maizy Chen’s Last Chance! We can’t meet up for lunch so I’m repurposing this photo from 8 years ago for some other thing. #ALAYMA

You all talk about the struggles of your cats getting in your way when you’re trying to type. Try a 55 lb dog that thinks he’s a cat
