9:30 a.m. and still no kids at the second playground we’ve hit! Where are all the little ones this Saturday morning??

Anyone doing #1000wordsofsummer? I’m going to use it to see if there’s life after all in this (very slow going) WIP or whether it, too, is not the one.

The Summer Scrapbook

Ava, Becca, and Cat have always been inseparable. But the summer after eighth grade, they’re forced to spend two months apart. Outgoing Ava is dragged to London by her family. Anxious Becca is...

The Summer Scrapbook by @florencemigga.bsky.social is out now! Imagine if The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants followed middle schoolers, featured a scrapbook-in-progress instead of magic pants, & offered what PW calls "an affirming portrait of friendship in transition." Sounds delightful, right?!

Super excited for you and your readers. Yes, I see it available everywhere. For those looking to purchase today, I personally recommend The Bookstore.org which donates to local bookstores around the country. bookshop.org/p/books/the-...

Catching up on past prompts! I’m a plotter! This comes from a love of a nicely executed spreadsheet (the kind with no numbers!) and general lack of time. 😂 #CRPSugarGliders #CampRevPit

Welcome to #CampRevPit Day Three, #CRPSugarGliders 🩵 Today's prompt: Are you a pantser or plotter? Are there any particular strategies that have helped your outlining/drafting process?

Hmm…Lee would like talking with the other girls in her cabin after lights out when they’re supposed to be sleeping! 🏕️ #crpsugargliders #camprevpit

#CRPSugarGliders Prompt: What is your MC's favourite camp activity? Would they be... Swimming in the lake? Perfecting their bullseye at archery?? Pulling all the pranks??? etc etc I NEED TO KNOW 🤩 #CampRevPit

I wrote a whopping 450 words today. 😭 But I guess that’s better than the zero words I’ve written a day for the past few weeks and I’ll try not to feel too lame about it. #amwriting

Hi campers! I’m working on a MG novel loosely titled Romantic Jumanji and I’m happy to be here to hang with you all and especially the other #CRPSugarGliders! #CampRevPit #CampKickoff

It is done. I have subbed to @reviseresub.bsky.social! Sending out a wish for happy results to the universe, and then putting it out of my mind and moving forward.

Me: Let me narrow down my editor choices for @reviseresub.bsky.social Me, 20 minutes later: …and I’m down to 9…! (I can only choose 3 😭)

Ava! How could you NOT want to be in London? Enjoying @florencemigga.bsky.social THE SUMMER SCRAPBOOK! Thanks, @lernerbooks.bsky.social #partner.

The way I am kicking myself for not having a book with me. I know better than this.

Whoa! My picture book comes out NEXT YEAR!

Eric Smith@ericsmithrocks.bsky.social · 8mo ago

Pretty neat to think about how if you have a book out in 2027, in just a few days, you’ll have a book out NEXT YEAR. *screams*

My book is available on Netgalley, should you fancy: www.netgalley.com/widget/98028...

Finally got some words down after a few days of being too busy, and I hate his discouraged I feel. This story hasn’t found its stride yet, but still it just feels like I’m writing holes, holes, holes. Looking forward to the sessions where the words just flow and feel right.

2K words today! That’s the most I’ve done in one sitting in awhile. I’m just going to keep going and hope the solution to my plot problem comes to me. I’ve gotta trust these characters to show me their story.

Just saw that my Kindle preorder is on sale on Amazon, if you’re wanting to read it that way! www.amazon.com/Summer-Scrap...
