Podcast appearances and mentions of katherine roy

Hey ho, Jess here. This week, all four of us discuss some of the happenings out there in the publishing world. First up: Super Bowl Sunday is apparently a great reading day. Sarina sent us a screenshot of her sales (she was tipped off by another author) and found out what many people are reading during the game:So that's fun. Next up, Sean Manning of Simon & Schuster announced no more blurbs (yay!)…unless you want to (boo!) in Publisher's Weekly and everyone had a lot to say about it. The New York Times, LitHub, lots of others. We add some perspective to the conversation as both blurbees and blurbers. Here's that wonderful AJ Jacobs NYT piece about not blurbing. And Rebecca Makkai's piece on not blurbing anymore in her Substack. PEN AmericaThe Authors Guild. Please join. Authors Against Book Bans. Please join. Is Sarina Bowen going to jail? We sure hope not.Here's OK SB593, the legislation we discussed by the dude in Oklahoma. Make sure to check out the language on pages 10-11. Don't take our word for it, read it yourself. Here's an example of the work The Authors Guild is doing to stop book banning, in this case in Idaho. I mentioned author and illustrator Katherine Roy in passing, so here's her episode and her website, and the book I mentioned, Making More: How Life Begins. This is a public episode.

Children's author and illustrator Katherine Roy has tackled topics like sharks and elephants in books but more recently she has turned her brushes and words loose on the topic of reproduction in her latest book, "Making More - How Life Begins." We talked to Katherine for this episode about how a project like that comes together and what makes for effective science communication in elements like art and words for complex topics like the biology of reproduction.  Show Notes: Illustrator and Author Katherine Roy  Website: https://www.katherineroy.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katherineroystudio/  

Katherine Roy shares Making More: How Life Begins, distilling the science of reproduction into its simplest components and highlighting the astonishing variety of this process with examples from across the natural world, from ferns and butterflies to trout, hawks, rabbits, and more.   BOOK DESCRIPTION: Making More: How Life Begins by Katherine Roy Page Length: 72 pages Ages 9 to 12, Grades 4 to 7   From fish to mammals and plants to insects, every organism on Earth must reproduce, and the survival of each species--and of life itself--depends on this and on the diversity it creates. In this groundbreaking book, Katherine Roy distills the science of reproduction into its simplest components: organisms must meet, merge their DNA, and grow new individuals; and she thoughtfully highlights the astonishing variety of this process with examples from across the natural world, from ferns and butterflies to trout, hawks, rabbits, and more.   Lucid, informed, and illuminated by beautiful paintings, Making More weaves a story that seamlessly explains life's most fundamental process, answers children's questions, and provides an essential tool for parents, caregivers, and educators. NOTABLE QUOTES:   (5:01) “Over time you can get variation through a population and life can change, which gives us biodiversity on our planet, which I absolutely love because we live in a gorgeous planet, um, a beautiful world. And I love looking at life through this lens of thinking about the system of genes and inheritance and how we are all connected. And that makes me feel really alive.”   (7:32) “It's all connected. Every living thing has parents and every cell in our body, every living organism has this story written into itself that go back and back in time to the earliest life on earth.”   (8:51) “What is it that kids wanna know? These are geography questions. How does the baby get out? How did the egg get in? Like, that's a location question. That's a transportation question, right? I can answer this. There's nothing wrong with this.” (12:52) “I think people get funny when kids ask a question about how a baby gets out of its mom. Right? And I don't think there's anything wrong with that question, and I don't ever want a kid to feel like they asked a bad question, because that's a great question and it deserves an answer. And I want kids to feel like they can come to their trusted adult, or their teacher or their parent and ask this question and not be turned away.” (14:10) “I just wanted to give kids a chance to ask these questions and to get answers from a safe and trusted source. And I've done my absolute best to make the information as beautiful and accurate as possible so that kids can have an understanding of how this process works without somebody getting funny on them.”  (19:23) “You know, this book was set in a forest ecosystem because that's where I live, but you live in a different place and maybe a book needs to be written about your habitat and what's making more near you, and it's just a totally different way to look at where you live. So I hope that you go out and enjoy your backyard, your neighborhood, and just have a whole new way to look at it.” ADDITIONAL LINKS: Katherine Roy Website - www.katherineroy.com Purchase the Book - Making More: How Life Begins TALK ABOUT THE EPISODE: Why do living things make more? What is a benefit to creating more of something that shares your same genes? Do you think it's hard to talk about the subject of making more? What about the topic of making more do you think makes some people uncomfortable? Katherine Roy shared that all living things are first developed in one of three different kinds of ponds. Can you remember what this pond is like for fish? What about for reptiles and birds? For mammals?

The theme this week on the Retirement Quick Tips Podcast is: Stock Market Correction Is Here…What To Do Now Yesterday, I talked about how I think a recession is likely at this point, and why I'm concerned that this current stock market could get worse. With that said, let me share with you why I'm not doing anything about it - at least for right now… In May of 2020, right around the time that the stock market bottomed out and revered course after the Covid shock, Katherine Roy, Chief Retirement Strategist at JP Morgan said: “Investors crave control and may be tempted to act in a way that we know is likely to hurt their retirement strategy by selling out of the market after a significant loss, locking in those losses, but with every intention of reentering the market when it feels safer, whenever that may be.” What's the takeaway? It's time in the market, not correct market timing that matters most for your long-term returns. Timing the market is such a futile exercise, that if you just refuse to give into the temptation to sell - even if you thing worse things are on the horizon - you're going to sidestep the trap of thinking you'll miss the worst of the decline and know when it's time to get back in.  That's it for today. Thanks for listening!

Today I'm going through some of the highlights of the 2021 version of the Guide to Retirement, from JP Morgan Asset Management. According to the nice folks at JP Morgan,"Updated annually, the Guide to Retirement provides an effective framework for supporting advisor retirement planning conversations with clients. It includes charts and graphs to help explain complex topics in a clear and concise manner." According to Katherine Roy, Chief Retirement Strategist, J.P. Morgan Asset Management, “Our 2021 Guide to Retirement considers a number of timely themes impacting those planning for retirement, such as managing lower expected returns for those closer to retirement, the importance of diversified investing, and tax management strategies.” It's a 50+ slide PowerPoint deck and if you're not a complete retirement nerd, it's a big pile of eye-crossing charts and graphs. But there is some good information. And today I go through some of the highlights and how some of the data might affect you and your retirement plan. So join me, won't you?

This Sunday, tune in to Retirement360 with MWA advisor Alan Mercurio and host, Randy Cook, as they take on the latest tending news. Are you planning to celebrate Bobby Bonilla Day? Better yet, did you know that even though he retired from baseball in 2001, Bobby Bonilla still receives a check for $1,193,248.20 from the New York Mets on the first of every July? Are you receiving the right financial advice for your retirement? Forbes says the financial advice people use in their working years is not necessarily the best choice to help them as they approach retirement. What advice are you receiving? And, will you really spend more during your retirement? S. Katherine Roy, a strategist for J.P. Morgan, seems to have a pretty strong opinion about the subject.

Katherine Roy (@KRoyStudio), author and illustrator of How To Be an Elephant, stops by the podcast to talk about learning by copying, finding the balance and letting the watercolor do the talking.

To Roth or not to Roth, that is the question.  With the option to make Roth contributions now offered in well over 50% of workplace retirement plans by most surveys, it is great to see more acceptance of Roth but there are still a lot employers who are either not making it available, or who might offer it but don’t recognize the full scope of benefits it offers their employees.  To help inform the conversation I was excited to have Katherine Roy, Managing Director and Chief Retirement Strategist and Head of Individual Retirement for J.P. Morgan Funds join me! We kick things off clarifying a few misperceptions about Roth, then we delve into few features of Roth that don’t get a lot of attention for both lower and higher paid employees and then we close the proverbial door with some thoughts on the "Backdoor Roth 401(k)".  And under the banner of I would rather be lucky than good, with the current push for tax reform and the talk of the “Rothification” of 401(k) plans, our timing could be better and we get some great insight from Katherine there as well.  Guest Bio Katherine Roy, managing director, is Chief Retirement Strategist and Head of Individual Retirement for J.P.
