Currently reading @authorgracelin.bsky.social 's book "The Gate, the Girl, and the Dragon" so, of course I had to stop and snap a picture of these imperial guardian lions that we passed on the street today.

Yay Massachusetts! Amendments added to the bill, "An Act Regarding Free Expression." They make the bill even stronger. Please contact your STATE Senator & urge them to support the bill with these amendments. Directions: preview.mailerlite.io/emails/webvi... #ReadFree #FReadom #AuthorsAgainstBookBans

I shared a behind-the-scenes look at curating a retrospective of @authorgracelin.bsky.social's work for @carlemuseum.bsky.social (a process that I found similar to reporting and writing a journalistic story). If you were thinking about seeing the show, go soon. It's up for 7 more weeks.

It’s getting chilly which means the end of the year is coming—which also means the end of my exhibit @carlemuseum.bsky.social ! Make your November (or early Dec) plans to see it NOW because it goes down as soon as 2026 arrives!

The #veryasianbooktrip had a quick stop @possiblefuturesbooks before we ended. In honor of our AAV fundraiser for highlights (pls donate!) we asked (almost) every store to tell us about one of their favorite Asian American book. Lauren chose one of mine🥰. Such a sweet way to end the trip! 💜💜💜

So the last day of #veryasianbooktrip was a Very Asian Disaster! Sadly, this might mean the end of our future #veryasianbooktrip 😢. Cross your fingers we can find the courage to continue🚗! But it was great fun and thank you to all the bookstores who had us!
