- Reposted by Anne Appert (they/them)It was so fun to get to table with @anneappert.bsky.social at the Newton Children’s Book Festival on Sunday! I saw so many people and failed utterly at taking photos… so here are two I managed and one from Victoria. They star the very cool @weyakindesigns.bsky.social and @andrewchacket.bsky.social !

- Reposted by Anne Appert (they/them)Got my 2nd piece done for #ABLArtFest - this one is for #TheCrystalBallReveals! This started out fun and ended up slightly ominous… what with the approaching rain clouds and all. . @andreabrownlit.bsky.social #kidlit #illustration #cutpaper #picturebookillustration #itsybitsy #spider #treehouse
- Reposted by Anne Appert (they/them)My 1st piece for #ABLArtFest - the prompt was #fallfestivities! I adore the sneaky dragon, the determined bunny, and the trying-ever-so-hard robot…. But the mad scientist and dog for sure “steal” the scene (see what I did there?!). #kidlitart #illustration #cutpaper @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

- Reposted by Anne Appert (they/them)Hey Bluesky, could you help me spread the word about my Big Cartel shop? A sale or two would be a colossal help. All of my creations are designed, sewn, and hand-embroidered by me. Each takes many hours to make. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com
- My next picture book was announced on Tuesday! So thrilled I get to illustrate these wonderful happybaras and their adventures, as written by my friend @sudiptabq.bsky.social .

- Reposted by Anne Appert (they/them)1. Alert, and please share widely. A lawyer at the ACLU has asked me to inform my transgender readers that they should NOT be applying for passports right now - the state department has not issued guidance to comply with the court order and they are urgently trying to get them to do so. 🧵

- Reposted by Anne Appert (they/them)hey here's something I would love us all to do like RIGHT NOW: find out if your local library is doing any kind of pride programming or display, and if they are, email them to say thank you and why it matters to you. whether or not you're queer. especially if you're in an area where it's fraught

- I don’t have many rituals, but one I do have is every morning I take a fresh sheet of my task list and write down everything that was on yesterday’s list, but more neatly, and in a different color this time, because maybe that will help.
