It was a long day but definitely worth the two hour road trip to Crozet, Virginia for the third annual Book Fest hosted by @bluebirdandco

I was at my computer before the sun came up to get some writing in before my adventure.

Then, I listened to @themelrobbinspodcast on “Unlocking Your Full Potential” with @adamgrant while on my way to pick up my bestie, who is a fellow English teacher and my go-to for all things writing (and life quite frankly).

We attended three panel discussions. It was great to get insights into so many authors’ stories and journeys.
📚The Witch, the Siren & the Scholar: Books with a Dash of Magic featuring
📚So You Want to be a Writer: Picture Book Edition
📚A Good Place to Die: Setting as a Character in Mysteries

I was so thrilled to meet @margaretliseeley We’re both lucky enough to be represented by @lindsey_aduskevich I can’t wait to read Mengxi Seeley’s debut novel Silk and Sensibility.

I ate a delicious Mediterranean wrap @crozelisandwiches

Then, we headed to UVA to visit with my daughter. We toured the @fralinmuseumuva before eating gelato @pinapopizzeria

On the way home, I chilled out listening to “Massachusetts” by @jensenmcrae

I treated myself to the final episode of season 3 of My Life with the Walter Boys on @netflix I really hope the series stays true to the ending of the books by @authoralinovak

Last but certainly not least, I finished my day enjoying the middle grade historical fiction novel The Red Umbrella by @christinadiazgonzalez

Already looking forward to attending the Crozet Book Fest again next year!
