This is a fun photo with Crystal Maldonado and Kate Fussner. It celebrates "book fashion," with my PEDRO & DANIEL blazer and their book dresses. Unfortunately, you can't see Kate's book is printed on her purse! So cool to be in an article with @RyanSeacrest and @ambsmcbride @crystalwrote @katefussner @MassBook #PedroAndDaniel
Recently, a horror writer returned to his hometown for a spooky event, an author sought out the real-life subject of her picture book, siblings celebrated their final book event together + more in this week’s In Brief roundup bit.ly/3A6hNkf

As an author, I write stories to spark curiosity, challenge perspectives, and connect with readers on a deeper level. But when books are banned, something precious is taken from all of us. Book banning silences voices, erases diverse experiences, and limits our freedom.
Books by and/or about BIPOC, Queer, and intersectional individuals are at risk of book challenges and bans. Free and easy ways to support them: 📚Make a library purchase request. 📚Write a review. 📚Share on social media. #BannedBooksWeek2024 #FreedomToRead #ReadFree #AuthorsAgainstBookBans #PedroAndDaniel @duncantonatiuh @Lupita_Nyongo @lesleanewman @aj_irving @vickijohnson @Author_Cisneros @JerryCraft @AuthorsABB @TorreyMaldonado @DanielNayeri @dbhiguera
