Chloe’s Lunar New Year 20% Discount for AAPI Heritage Month
Hello Friend,
I’ve been on a whirlwind trip to book festivals and author visits in Florida, Maine, and the UAE. I’ll write a longer newsletter with lots of photos of that trip including the two alpaca farms we camped at.
But right now, I want to let you know that Bookshop.org in partnership with the Asian American Writer’s Workshop is offering a 20% discount for Chloe’s Lunar Year Year. If you’ve been thinking of getting a copy or buying another copy as a gift, this is a great way to do it and support indie bookstores.
Use this Code at checkout = AAPIHeritage
They also have lists of other AAPI books with the same discount to check out.
Stay well and look for my trip newsletter towards the end of May.

No hot pot this year since scheduling doesn’t allow but we’ll still get together for a lovely meal at a restaurant. And, I’ll spend time this week to, as I say in Chloe’s Lunar...
Poulsbo Kids' Book Festival Hi, The fabulous Liberty Bay Books in Poulsbo, WA is doing their first kids book festival this Saturday from 11 am to 3 pm at the Sons of Norway Hall. The festival is a dream of its owner and kid lit author Suzanne Selfors. I love both being an author and an attendee of kids book festivals. It is so much fun to see and talk to so many kid lit authors all in one place. There is so much great energy! Check out the authors who will be there....
