Making Connections The connections we make in the course of a life—maybe that’s what heaven is. ~ Fred Rogers

A ‘living’ architectural sculpture that acts as an ecosystem, a beautiful picture book that draws connections b/w nature’s diversity and our own, and my very first writer’s retreat.
It’s all about Making Connections these days. @rozdraws.bsky.social

An incredible story. I’m so glad @lauramacgregor.bsky.social won. So well deserved. I was feeling all the feels when I read The Invisible Woman.

Thank you! Nice to connect with fellow #teamnovak authors and illustrators last night.

“The Dictionary of Lost Words reveals a lost narrative, hidden between the lines of a history written by men. Inspired by actual events, author Pip Williams has delved into the archives of the Oxford English Dictionary to tell this highly original story. The Dictionary of Lost Words is a delightful, lyrical, and deeply thought-provoking celebration of words and the power of language to shape the world.”

Good book alert 📖
