This is a true thing. I finally met one of my best kidlit buddies IRL. She’s even better in person, you guys. You’ll never find a more genuinely hilarious, sincerely sincere, really real person in our community than @julie_falatko ... we’ll work on our angles and ability to understand selfies LATER, mkay?
IT’S FINE, WE WERE BUSY.

I MET LAUREN ELDRIDGE AND NEITHER OF US KNOW WHERE TO LOOK IN A SELFIE.

Lauren is someone I've known since the beginning of my writing career. She is amazing and hilarious and once she sent me a nose in the mail and another time she sent me a box of eyeballs. But today was the first time I got to see her nose and her eyeballs in person.

I finally get to meet one of my #dayones from #kidlit IN PERSON on sunday! @julie_falatko and I have known each other since our babies were actually babies. We talked weird story ideas during nap times, shared crazy business drama, became published, and now her oldest has a beard. So naturally I planned to spend my days before meeting such a wonderful lady by cleaning my house, working on new stories, preparing fancy hors d'oeuvres, and organizing the studio.
Instead I’m planting trees and moving a retaining wall that’s been throwing off the yard because, ummm, I don’t want to be inside.
Don’t worry it’s fine. She likes fruit.
OH! ALSO! She has a new picture book out TODAY! Happy book birthday to THE GREAT INDOORS by Julie & illustrated by the fabulous @ohtruth ! Follow both of these lovely ladies and get your paws on this hilarious book 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Your work is out of this world!
Meaning good.
