It’s getting tense, someone get the popcorn (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Over the weekend, I attended a de-escalation training where I volunteer. This wasn’t at the top of my fun ways to spend a Sunday list. Annnd it was surprisingly interesting and well-led.There were about forty of us there, sitting three to four at a table, and listening to a trained individual, who works with a local mission, work through how to take a tense situation and calm it down.As a rom-com writer, I wanted to shout, “NOOO!

A sucker for romance anywhere I can find it, it took me a bit to invest in Britian’s royal family.First, there was Diana.

Things are different in the world of Scholastic Book Club than they were in my day. At least, they’re different in my world. I’m now the parent with the cash and my son is the one marking the books he wants to buy with a side of, “Pleasepleaseplease, can I get them?”Thanks for reading Emily B. Riddle Writes!
