Vacation Pix and a Fun New Blog

August 12, 2009 By Laura

I took much of July off from blogging, because I was in Chicago for ALA and then on family vacation in Florida for two weeks. I already shared several posts and lots of pictures from Chicago and ALA, and now I’ve put up two Florida photo albums online.

Here’s the one with family pix:

And here’s the one with Disney pix:

You should be able to see these whether you have a Facebook account or not.

And for something writing-related, I hope you’ll check out Dara Dokas’ new blog, Children’s Writer Gal. Dara’s a bookseller and children’s author, and she’s been blogging some posts that beginners to the world of writing for kids will find very interesting. She’s been covering advance/royalties, picture book dummies, and more. So stop by, read up, and say hey:>)

JANUARY NEWS

I loved the holidays! And I'm so glad they're over. A quiet, snowy January is just what I need. This month, I'm working on two board book manuscripts, and I'm making materials to go with my 3 spring 2023 books.

I'm also busy prepping for upcoming author visits and setting my goals and priorities for 2023. Wishing you a lovely start to your own new year!
