- I am always so glad to hear from teachers (and other readers) that my books helped a student, themselves, or someone they know. This post from teacher Dee Schmidt Kramer about SCARS felt good to read! (beaming) And it’s a big part of why I write – to help others know that they are not alone, things can and will get better, and that they are strong, deserve to be treated well, and matter. . . . #cherylrainfield #YAwriter #LGBTQwriter #booknerd #bookworm #ireadYA #survivor #feminist #YAlit #YAbooks #bookstagram #bookrecs #scars

- I am grateful to have my sweet little author assistant Petal pressed up against my leg as I work on my manuscript. (Smiling) . I am typing in my editing changes (I write and edit by hand) using the best ergonomic keyboard I’ve ever found – my Advantage Kinesis. Years ago when I started using it and a mouse that put my hand into the handshake position I reversed numbness, tingling, and pain from RSI. . Lately I’ve been having some numbness and tingling come back because I wasn’t using it every time with my laptop and also no ergonomic mouse (no space with my laptop), but I’m going to change that. . . How do you protect yourself from RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury) or workplace injury? . . . #advantagekinesis #ergonomickeyboard #ergonomic #rsi #cherylrainfield #YAwriter #LGBTQwriter #booknerd #bookworm #ireadYA #survivor #feminist #petalrainfield #chinesecrested #hairyhairless #dogstagram #ilovemydog #ilovemychinesecresteddog #dogmom
