Atop all of this is “save the dates” scribble underlined and “Trans+ History Week 04-10 May 2026” Handwritten beneath on a ripped bit of paper is “our history, our power” And at the bottom it reads “a QueerAF launchpad project”

The guidelines are on the website. This is an open call with no theme. We're looking for poems to entertain and intrigue children. We are a global poetry platform.

UGHHHHH. Authors, what do you do? POPI'S ALL SOULS SONG had amazing reviews until someone on Amazon gave it 3 stars because of the shipping/condition. I want to give that reviewer a book. But cannot. That is so weird to me that one would low score a book based on something out of your control.

Love that George Saunders gave a shout-out to Cheryl Lindbloom in his National Book Award for Distinguished Contributions to American Letters speech. She was one of my favorite teachers in high school. (George and I graduated from the same high school.)

Butterfly Sea earned Kirkus Review 'Get It' accolade! "Couët's watercolor-style illustrations drive the story, offering beautiful, sweeping landscapes of butterflies flying over a body of water and endearing close-ups of the children examining insects. A sweet tale of childhood with lovely images."
