History is typically divided into six eras: Dawn, Merethic, First, Second, Third, and Fourth. The Dawn Era lacks any sense of time at all and the Merethic Era has few specific dates. The term era has been used archaically to refer to both a period of time around 800 years and one of 1,000 years. Numerous details about events in Tamriel's history are debated by scholars, whose opinions are influenced by numerous biases (desire for recognition, loyalty to the realm, racial and cultural conflict, etc.) and a general lack of scientific technique.

Each year is uniquely expressed by its era and its ordinal numeration with respect to the first year of the era, in the case of the Second[1] and Fourth,[2] whereas the First[3] and Third[4] progress from their respective zeroth years. The Merethic Era is dated backwards, starting at ME 2500, the Convention of the Divines at the Adamantine Tower, to ME 1, the year before King Eplear established the Camoran Dynasty.[3]

Each year is composed of twelve distinct months (sometimes called "Seasons"[5]), each around thirty days in length.[6] Each month has an associated constellation which is typically in the sky throughout its duration.

Sun's Dawn (known as Xeech in Jel, meaning Nut)[8] is the second month of the year. It is a spring month.[7] It seemingly has 28 days,[6] though some sources place a 29th day in the month.[9][nb 1]

Midyear (also spelled Mid Year[10] and Middle Yarr,[11] and known as Hist-Tsoko in Jel, meaning Elder Hist)[8] is the sixth month of the year. It is a summer month.[7] It has 30 days.[6] In the Ayleid version of the calendar the Mid Year was fifty-seven days long and lasted "all across summer", before it was split by Pelinal Whitestrake.[11]

Hearthfire (also known as Heartfire,[5] sometimes spelled Hearth Fire[12] or Heart Fire,[13][14] and known as Nushmeeko in Jel, meaning Lizard)[8] is the ninth month of the year. It is a fall month.[7] It has 30 days.[6]

Frostfall (also spelled Frost Fall[15] and known as Shaja-Nushmeeko in Jel, meaning Semi-Humanoid Lizard)[8] is the tenth month of the year. It is a fall month.[7] It has 31 days.[6]

But the real focus of my #writinglife lately has been launching The Funeral Ladies of Ellerie County. I would love to see you at one of our release events, Wisconsin friends/family/readers!

Eowyn and Jules have spent the past six summers together at Lamplighter Lake Summer Camp for the Arts. But this summer, so many things feel different\u2014Eowyn\u2019s brother has struck it big on Broadway, Jules has learned the truth about how her family\u2019s able to afford camp every year, and while they\u2019re both over the moon about the summer show being Wicked, they\u2019re also full of loathing (\u201Cun-adul-turated loaTHING\u201D) for one another. Will they be able to put their differences aside and land the lead roles? Or will hurt feelings + green-eyed envy be the star of the show? Think Tale of Two Cities meets High School Musical meets Bug Juice, but make it middle grade. (Do you see why they don\u2019t let me write my own book descriptions? I\u2019m keeping my day job.)

The origin story: When it came time to consider what I wanted to write about next in middle-grade-land, the idea of summer camp kept popping into my mind. I went to camp as a kid and adored it\u2014the choco tacos, the canoes, the endless supply of chocolate milk. But another huge part of my childhood was theater. It\u2019s wild just how many writers were theater kids growing up, and when you think about it, it makes total sense. Theater + writing are just different forms of storytelling. I was part of an all-children traveling theater group1 and my favorite part of the entire production cycle was the day we would get the script. It was just so enthralling, to see where the story was headed and how the scenes were laid out and in what way the characters would crash + collide. In the back of my head, I always had a secret dream of being able to write scripts for that theater company one day. The company sadly died a painful COVID death, but it gave me a lifelong love of fairy tales, step-ball-changes, and backstage besties.

I was also toying with the idea of a dual-narrative story, something I haven\u2019t gotten to do in the middle grade sphere. I wanted to play around with the idea of the same event from two entirely different perspectives. Take It From the Top is told over the course of six summers (lol, my editor loves my wildly out-of-order timelines, surely2) and you get to see various happenings from Eowyn\u2019s eyes and Jules\u2019 eyes. Who\u2019s right? Who\u2019s wrong? Is it all a matter of perspective, or are some things objective? Are we missing things others bring to the table? Can you rank feelings? Or interpretations? Whose are more important, and whose do we listen to? Are we all just playing a role? Do those roles ever switch? Those are the kinds of questions I wanted to toy with.

Take It From the Top releases November 19 2024\u2014just in time for the holidays (and the Wicked movie)! I would love if you would consider a preorder for you or the middle grader in your life. As always, I recommend ordering through your local indie if possible, but if you\u2019re in a season of life where Jeffy B or B&N make the most sense, live your best life:

Meanwhile, something kind of bananas happened recently: WHAT HAPPENED TO RACHEL RILEY WAS NOMINATED FOR AN EDGAR. These are the prestigious literature awards given by the Mystery Writers of America every year and I\u2019m so, so thrilled that Rachel + Anna\u2019s story made the list. I\u2019ve always loved mysteries, ever since my days of Miss Scarlett and Sammy Keyes and Nancy Drew, and this is such an honor. I get to go to the reception in New York in May and \u201Cexcited\u201D is a bit of an understatement. If you think I didn\u2019t change my professional bio to \u201CEdgar-award nominated author\u201D the literal minute I found out, we have never met.

The book has also been nominated for an Audie, the largest audiobook award in existence! I really can\u2019t take credit for this but I\u2019m incredibly proud of the cast. And I mean\u2026I can take a little credit, because I got to help cast the book. So. Credit accepted. ;)

Kids: We enjoyed diving into Barry Wittgenstein\u2019s A Place to Land: Martin Luther King Jr. and The Speech That Inspired a Nation. It was a great conversation starter with beautiful illustrations.

Middle graders: I absolutely loved The Lost Year by Katherine Marsh. It\u2019s about an important historical event I rarely see discussed in kidlit\u2014the Ukrainian Holodomor. It was beautifully written, with elements of hope and grace woven into an immense tragedy.

Adults: I\u2019m currently really enjoying Wavewalker by Suzanne Heywood\u2014kind of like Tara Westover\u2019s Educated, but on a sailboat. I also tore through Pride and Prejudice on audio and learned that I can actually enjoy Jane Austen if she\u2019s read aloud to me! It only took me 32 years to learn this fun fact but hey, better late than never.

The more I think about this the more I\u2019m in awe of the 2 adults who were in charge of supervising 28 children in costume. We were legit just put in random parents\u2019 vans, driven across town, and I as a 12-year-old was in charge of three little kids\u2019 stage makeup at any given time. What the what?! But those years were extremely formative and when I think of my middle school days, I often think of myself backstage, reading the Alice novels by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor and half-listening to make sure I didn\u2019t miss my cue.

In the village Bur you will stop and walk in between old turf houses. There is a great view here of Tindhlmur islet with its many spiky peaks. You will also see the rocky sea-stacks Drangarnir from this cozy village.

After you have been picked up in Trshavn, you will hit the road to the isolated village Saksun. This is where you will experience the tidal lagoon from the tiny turf settlement that lies in beautiful surroundings between rugged mountains and fascinating streams.

Now you are ready to discover the best sights that the northern part of Eysturoy has to offer. When on the island Eysturoy, your primary goal is to explore the villages Gjgv and Funningur. Your tour guide will share some of the local stories along the way.

Wednesday. Look forward to an absolutely amazing day on the puffin island Mykines. Here you will see thousands of puffins and other birds. The puffins will greet you on green hillsides as you walk in the lush green grass.

Everything is prepared and ready to go from the very minute you are picked up in Trshavn so that you can focus fully on your Mykines experience and the unspoiled nature that awaits. The tour guide will pick you up in Trshavn in a spacious coach.

Relax as you drive along the unbelievable coastal scenery before you get to the harbour in Srvgur. Here you will sail to Mykines and all the wonders on the most westerly islands in the Faroe Islands. The first thing you will meet in Mykines is the steep path and the small village, which is the only one on the island.

This exclusive tour will be lead by Heini Heinesen. He is born and raised on Mykines and has even spent entire summers on Mykineshlmur where the epic lighthouse is nestled. Heini will tell his insights to the unbelievable island and stories from the magic spots that you will enjoy.

Your local tour guide Heini will make sure that you get really close to puffins, but he will also be aware of your safety and let you know how to be careful when approaching the little charming bird with its colourful beak. The hillsides are packed with puffins and it truly looks like something out of an unread fairytale.
