Break Time for a Doodle

So, I've started a middle grade project. I'm so excited. Only about 8,000 words to go.
Taking time to draw when I get little breaks.

Just having a little ferret fun,

Working on a new project......

So a few new paths I will travel. Who knows.

Sunshine Smile Publications, Thank you

I was so honored. I am featured on Sunshine Smile Publication's Website. What great information, resources  and links can be found here. I just love it. Thanks to Chantel Napier for all her hard work.

Christmas is Here

Wonderful Christmas, God bless us Everyone, as Tiny Tim would say-

Time to put the drawing and writing away and concentrate on friends and family. May your Christmas be blessed.

I Should be Shopping for Christmas, oh well

I know, tis the Season. Yes, My tree is up. My outside lights are glowing. Even a few inside decorations are up. So I sneak back to the drawing board. So excited for this new project. I know it does not look too Christmasy (I know that is not a word)

TURKEY TIME

No Time to play, It is Turkey Time. Time for cooking, friends and fun.

New Easy Reader Project

Almost finished. Cleaning up some details. Working on an Easy Reader project for a special assignment.

Not So Spooky Halloween

So, the cool air is here. Time for those silly Hamsters to come Trick or Treating at my door. And I have the candy ready.

Updating Website

Came up with a way to post my first place award by the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators I got from the Carolina's Conference I attended two weeks ago. I'm really so proud of this award for my story, Chicken Roundup.

After the SCBWI Carolinas Conference

Wow, ....... after three jam packed days of information and great fun. So as they say, " I'm Charged Up and Ready to Go." The speakers were great. Just to name a few of these fantastic folks, we had Mary Kate Castellani of Bloomsbury, Mallory Kass of Scholastic Press, Amy Lennex of Sleeping Bear Press, Rachel Orr from Prospect Agency, Marietta Zacker from Nancy Gallt Literary, Josh Adams from Adams Literary and Associate Art Director Lucy Ruth Cummins of Simon and Schuster Books for Young Readers. And Illustrator David Diaz thrilled the illustrators with an excellent portfolio workshop. Way too Wonderful
