Hilarie Burton Instagram – It is my work wife @lizzy5445 ‘s BIRTHDAY. Liz is 100% the brains behind this operation. On any given day, she is the person who makes sure that I show up at my scheduled meetings, makes me hit my writing deadlines (or at least come close), deals with Internet stalkers who pretend to be my children, reaches out to brands that I love so we can collaborate, reads all the books and articles I throw at her for potential IP that we can develop, brings me IP that blows my mind, blocks off all of my PTSO meetings and schedules everything around my kids school calendar, helps me plan wrap parties and book launch parties and tours, introduces me to brilliant artists so that we can all team up, is my producing teammate and juggles the seriousness of @ichhstories with the hilarity of @dramaqueensoth, works with my husband‘s team so that our calendars don’t collide, and fun fact…….She is the person who talked me into joining social media! Liz is a genius. She always makes the right decision. She works harder than anyone. She’s one of those people who can make ANYTHING happen. And I don’t know what she saw in me but everyone else back off! She’s mine! It feels really nice to have someone I can trust so deeply in my life. She woke up this morning on her birthday and started sending me text messages about the merchandise we are designing for Grimoire Girl. So to that I say…. Go party Liz! The shirts can wait! We’re going to whoop it up next week. Thank you for loving me and believing in me. Thank you for caring so much about my family and always putting them first. My life is immeasurably better because of you. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
