Just finished Fingersmith by the incredibly talented Sarah Waters and it was so good! Sarah is a literary pioneer who continues to leave an indelible mark, so it’s the perfect way to celebrate #PrideMonth. Don’t you love a book that keeps you turning pages? #queerliterature

This photo of my mother on my desk helps me feel like she's with me when I'm writing. She was quite a cheerleader when it came to getting us all reading. I try my best to honor her with every word I write. Who helped spark your love of reading when you were growing up?

I got the idea to write The Golden Doves when I saw Irene Zisblatt tell her incredible story about being inprisoned at Auschwitz at eight-years-old, and read her book The Fifth Diamond. It's unputdownable and so inspiring. #WomenInHistory

No matter what new writing implement I try I always come back to the trusty Ticonderoga 2. I tried the erasable pens but there's nothing like graphite when it comes to getting the good stuff on the page. What's your go-to?

All the talk about the Barbie movie has had me reminiscing with my daughters about their American Girl Dolls. They spent hours playing with them! I’m happy that they’re making a comeback and being shared with a new generation. Have your children played with American Girl dolls?

It was lovely seeing Caroline's cousin, Lisa, at the Bellamy-Feriday House recently! She's been such a loyal supporter and comes to every event. I love that we got to take our pic in front of Caroline’s hutch where her china is displayed. Do you see the resemblance to her cousin?

One of my favorite parts about being an author is signing books at the bookstore and connecting with any readers. I love that B&N Danbury brought out the whole gang—hadn’t seen all of my books together since GOLDEN DOVES came out, which was fun!

Sometimes it’s good to be reminded about how to make sure your days are meaningful from beginning to end. I passed this sign and loved the thought!

I think my husband would appreciate it if I used this journal instead of doing it out loud! 😊

One of my favorite things to collect are creative bookmarks to use while I’m reading. Here are two new ones featuring Arlette and Josie from Golden Doves. Have you found any interesting bookmarks recently? Or have you maybe made your own?

There’s nothing like a book cover reveal, so excited to see this cover come to life! Stephanie Dray is a lovely friend of mine and an exceptional writer, I can’t wait to read "Becoming Madam Secretary".

The week’s almost over but I think it might still be time to put this door hanger to use. TBD on whether it works, knowing my house!
