Yup! Just sculling about & following sticklebacks one summer & saw it shining in the pebbles - dove down to grab it & erupted back out of the water shouting 'my precious' in full Gollum mode! 😆✨

Anne Spielberg with Charlotte Pierce at Minuteman National Park, Old North Bridge

Illustrator Daniel Fiore discusses an idea with author Anne Spielberg

After a terrific meeting with illustrator Dan Fiore, we dragged our author Anne Spielberg @anne49bsky.bsky.social through slush and mud to soak in some American history at Old North Bridge today. She was such a good sport!

Anne's children's book, The Iceberg & The Penguin, is due out in 2027.

If you are going to the #EU or particularly #portugal from US East Coast, please LMK if you'd be willing to mail a book to Lisbon from EU. I've sent 6 copies of olegveretskiy.com 's Tales, 3 separate packages, and all 3 appear to be stuck in Portuguese Customs. You can't get there from here! 😡

@chantireviews.com So happy to open email this morning and find that my author @veretskiy.bsky.social made the OZMA longlist! This will lift him up so much - he's serving in the Ukrainian military in a special intelligence unit. His book club meets this Sunday - please consider dropping in! :-)
