Don’t Forget the Lights, a guest post by Jennifer Ann Richter As a longtime reader and writer, I’ve found light in words. My hope is that young people also find it in the pages of my books.

Still working on backstory. Figured I'd take my time on this since I'm not on deadline. Have a good writing/planning/thinking morning, #5amwritersclub!

On this Friday edition of #5amwritersclub, I'm diving into my protag's backstory by writing a detailed origin story scene to pin down her misbelief (an exercise courtesy of Lisa Cron's Story Genius). Okay, back to work...

Happy Thursday, #5amwritersclub! I've barely finished chapter one, but I'm stopping to write my 2-page synopsis because I know I won't feel like it later.

I'm definitely in the "as you go" camp. Happy writing (and revising)!

Back again for the club, which began for me at 3am with some in-bed musing. #5amwritersclub

Slept through the night but still waking up tired. I blame the pollen. Anyway, here's to successful writing (and waking), #5amwritersclub!

Happy morning writing, everyone! Got revision notes late yesterday afternoon, complete with a tight deadline, so I'll be "butt in chair" over the next month. #5amwritersclub

Yes! I love it when a bunch of birds are singing and it picks them out one by one.

Children's Books for Earth Day These children’s books for Earth Day celebrate nature and invite kids to fall in love with the planet and every living creature on it.

Good morning, #5amwritersclub! Starting late since yesterday's DMV experience required a bit of recuperation. There was one bright spot, though. BIRD NERD was featured in a Book Riot post! I love how they described my book. bookriot.com/best-childre...
