Writer & educator. I'm curious about wonder, real-life magic, quirky obsessions, the power of friendship, and the universal struggle to find one's place in the world. Repped by John Cusick at Folio Jr. https://josephinecameron.com

I had a hard time letting go of my decade+ Twitter posts (nostalgia?) so I used blueark to move them here (thanks to @janefriedman.com 's Electric Speed newsletter!) It cost $5.00 and the only hitch was that apparently, all the posts got dated yesterday? Sorry if I accidentally flooded your feed!!!

My friends & family who work in Lewiston are safe and sound, our schools are closed, and we’re all just hunkered down waiting for news, but I think I’ll take a break from the socials for a while. Sending love to all my friends! ❀️

Statement from Authors and Illustrators on Scholastic Book Fairs' Policy of Separating and Excluding...

Authors, if you think Scholastic's "separate but equal" book fair plan is, perhaps, a BAD idea, please consider signing this open letter to them about it:

Thank you to Tegan Beese for showing precisely how dishonest and cowardly Scholastic is being, both with their decision to segregated the books, and their statements justifying that segregation www.instagram.com/reel/CxvzRC-...

I love it so much when authors you admire are also people you admire. This took guts and heart. Thank you, Molly.

If you're coming to #Maine for leaf-peeping (you should!) be sure to stop by Brunswick to see the Robert McCloskey exhibit at the public library (ends Oct 29). I love seeing the sketches and process behind final art!
