Do you know the Easter Bunny Story?

Happy Book Birthday to HUDSON AND TALLULAH TAKE SIDES! Thank you, real-life Hudson, for your patience, if not for cats, but for photos. May we all try to find common ground and live with mutual love and respect. #bookbirthday #publishingday Christopher Weyant Kelsey Skea Pippin Properties, Inc.

This is Dave. Dave has been our mail carrier for years, through all kinds of extreme weather, culminating with the ultimate test of Covid. And yet, Dave has never missed a beat. He is always ready with his sunny attitude and a smile. When our dog, Hudson, suddenly started to bark and jump on him and chew up our mail, Dave took the time every day to tell him to sit, wait, and reward him with a little treat. After several weeks of this steady patience, Hudson now runs to Dave with joy when he sees him and waits dutifully for his treat. So when it was time to write a new picture book about finding common ground among friends and neighbors, I had to include Dave in the book. Thank you, Dave. ❤️🙏 #hudsonandtallulahtakesides #thankyouessentialworkers Pippin Properties, Inc. Kelsey Skea Christopher Weyant

Pippin Properties, Inc. is pleased to announce the launch of its first annual African American Creatives Grant—an award of $6,000 to an aspiring creative who has an interest in young people’s literature. For 2020, the inaugural year of the grant, Pippin is accepting applications for African American Artists only.
We believe Black Lives Matter, and we all must do our part to dismantle racism in our country and within publishing. In an effort to assist in deconstructing unjust disparities experienced by African American people in the United States, Pippin Properties is pledging to do its part by offering the African American Creatives Grant, in addition to other initiatives that aim to support, amplify, and elevate underrepresented creatives in the field.
African American artists, at any point in their careers, may apply and use the award towards the development of their careers. The creator is under no obligation to submit their work to Pippin Properties for representation. In the event that the recipient decides to do so, we would make it a priority to review the work with dispatch. Please note that Pippin is under no obligation to offer representation.
DEADLINE: Our submission window will remain open until we’ve received 100 applications OR until November 16th, 2020.

IT'S HERE!!!

It’s a big day for QUINTESSENCE over on one of my favorite kidlit sites.
✨
Nerdy Book Club is premiering the incredible map of Four Points created by JP Coovert and a short, mysterious opening excerpt.
✨
There’s also a post about my own childhood anxiety & how stories with mental health representation help readers. It is my message to readers who feel lost:

I’m so happy to share a second blurb for QUINTESSENCE today!
✨
“As bright and magical as a falling star, Quintessence is a beautifully told story that collided with my heart and set it aglow.”
✨
This blurb is from Heather Kassner, author of the magnificently eery THE BONE GARDEN and the marvelously wondrous forthcoming THE FOREST OF STARS! Both books drew me in completely with their fantastical settings and characters that I fell in love with.
✨
And TOMORROW I’ll be doing a #giveaway of QUINTESSENCE, THE MIRACULOUS, and THE FOREST OF STARS on Twitter and Instagram, so be sure to check it out!
