Good night.
Author and journalist. My MG historical novel, Jurassic Girl, is about Mary Anning's first major fossil find. I also write about health, animals, aging, and autism. Animal lover and reader of banned books, actually all kinds of books. Happily married.

It is. I was especially pleased to see my book in a NYC children's bookstore. My publisher is small. I had to do a lot of publicity.
Michele C. Hollow (@michelechollow.bsky.social) reply parent
Love it.

Birders, I love cats. I also love birds. What I don't like are outdoor cats because they hang around my bird feeders. What can I do to keep them away? Here's a photo of my cat.

Jurassic Girl is a middle grade book about Mary Anning's first major fossil find. She became the Mother of Paleontology. www.simonandschuster.com/books/Jurass...

According to the media, there has been a drop in the number of people reading. I still believe people read. I read a lot; it's my favorite spot.

It truly will be.

Veterans are speaking out. Trump's use of Troops against Americans isn't leadership—it's an abuse of power. We served the Constitution, not a king, a bully, or a dictator.
Michele C. Hollow (@michelechollow.bsky.social) reply parent
I had the same reaction.
Michele C. Hollow (@michelechollow.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes!

I understand. I'm still angry at my other senator, Andy Kim, for approving Noem.

We need more politicians like Gov. Pritzker, Gov. Newsom, and Sen. Booker. They've shown us they're not afraid to stand up against the orange menace.
Michele C. Hollow (@michelechollow.bsky.social) reply parent
I'm in NJ. I'm grateful for Senator Booker.

Chicago and IL are lucky he's their Governor. I wish all congressional members step up against the orange menace.
