Thanks to the books given out at @aisled_org , I was introduced to a historical figure I’ve never heard of. Evelyn Hooker started the research that eventually removed homosexuality from the official list of mental disorders. Loved learning about her and her work. Also, a reminder, you don’t need to read a 500 page volume to learn about a topic. Grab that middle grade or young adult book and discover something new!

Got a legit piece of fan mail today, complete with quotes from THE WAR ON ALL FRONTS and author citations. Might have been an assignment but this student still chose to write to me and tell me how much they loved my book…all the way from Arizona. by @kimoclon
