First half of my third residency at @hamlinemfac.bsky.social in the books! Excited for the rest of the fabulous #kidlit lectures this week.
Rude of me to post so belatedly, but I had an absolutely lovely weekend at the @hamlinemfac.bsky.social alumni weekend. Good people with kind hearts getting together in the service of craft, of bettering themselves and others. Nothing better on this entire planet.
Residency Winter 2025 (@hamlinemfac.bsky.social) is in full effect and I’m already tired and cold and overwhelmed… and it is amazing!
Residency starts tomorrow! Who is on their way to Hamline today?
