@AngelaStockman @PaulWHankins @lizmchapman @aschoenborn @mrbgilson @ShawnaCoppola @pennykittle @KellyGToGo The book Everything Bad Is Good for You by Steven R Johnson explains some of the cognitive work we do when we process visual narrative. The bias against it is unnecessarily strong.

@SisterLynnD @SkylerSchrempp In some cases it is harder to determine whether someone is alive than other cases (see Life's Edge by Carl Zimmer). Life support is different. Machines provide the support. A pregnant person is not a machine and should not be compelled to be used as one.

@LaurelSnyder This is a tough one. My kids generally ate at home. I did require all work to be done before socializing, unless it was a homework kind of thing. Be home by X is reasonable—they need enough sleep before school.

Last night the @SCBWI gave out Golden Kite Awards to a number of excellent books. I AM AN AMERICAN, which I wrote with @pacylin and which @juliaskuo illustrated, was a finalist. We didn't win, but it was a thrill to be a finalist for this book.
