Very grateful to @matthewcwinner.bsky.social for this very thoughtful conversation about Jewish joy in this complex moment (among other things), and for just being a total mensch. He brings so much light to the world!

Hey, friends! My (very very occasional) newsletter is up, with dates for #hanukkah #bookstore events to celebrate "THE BOOK OF CANDLES: 8 Poems for Hanukkah."

Baltimore, I'm home for the holidays!
Kick off the season at The Ivy Bookshop, with me & my friends, @dansantat.bsky.social and @ellenoh.bsky.social ! We'll sign books and goof and laugh.
Then, a few weeks later, come back and bring the kids for a banorah-making party and Hanukkah storytime!

Here's a blast from the past! Many years ago, on her wonderful podcast, The Book of Life, Heidi Rabinowitz asked me about the Jewish nature of my books, and it changed my career.
I feel so grateful to have time capsules like this, that bring me back to earlier versions of myself.

Hey! You! Please help circulate this petition?
Our reading bowl in GA has (very selectively) eliminated titles from the list this year, despite the fact that they were on the state awards list.
Including, ironically, @samiraahmed.bsky.social's THIS BOOK WON'T BURN.
