I've been doing some virtual programming and other MWT propaganda!

Hi, everyone! It's been ages — I've been lurking occasionally, but I haven't written in forever. I hope you are all well! 

I enjoyed seeing a few people virtually at Megan's recent "Day of Dialog" appearance. So wonderful! (Although I totally forgot to ask my most pressing question, concerning a book I think must have influenced her, which she has never mentioned... but I digress).

As some of you know, I am a YA Librarian, and my wonderful library has been having us create content. So recently the theme was "travel" and I posted this:

I'm also going to be doing a series called "Find Your New Faves" on Monday evenings, and I'm featuring "The Baker King" in the second session.  If you know anyone who might be interested, please let them know — or come yourself! I hope it's OK for me to post the link? If not, please take it away, and if so, it's here:

Thank you, and have a great afternoon!

So sorry, everyone!

I was using the new LJ editor to post this, and there doesn't seem to be a way to do a cut? I don't know why there is all that white space - I'll fix the post, as soon as I can figure out how.

Good to see you again, and thanks for the links! Lovely pictures, and cute fighting fish. :) Aris is a fitting name.

This reminds me of the Where's Eugenides tag we were contemplating, before a certain virus canceled everyone's travel plans for the summer. :( Oh well! At least we still have a new book to look forward to in the Fall.

Thank you for posting this, although I myself probably wont be able to come : ( .
Is The Baker King from her anthology instead of three wishes ?

Welcome back, deidrej. I saw you at the SLJ DoD. It's good to see you here, too. I also try to include QT titles in social content for my library as often as possible.

"The Baker King" is one of my favorite stories from Instead of Three Wishes. I like to think of Nele as some sort of great-ancestor of Gen's.

I've signed up and will try to attend. (7pm in CT is get-daughter-to-bed time in TX.)

It sounds like a lovely, fun program! I need to reread Three Wishes; it's been ages and I don't remember many of the stories. Book that may have influenced Megan? I'm curious...

And what is the seacoast town? It's beautiful.

Happy to see you back here!
