Archives for July 2012

I am very excited to be going on vacation next week for two whole weeks!!  A much needed trip after working solidly for two months on Please Bring Balloons.  Our trip will be a little bit of work and play.  First I will be down in L.A. visiting some friends and family, then up to the Bay Area for a wedding reception and to see more friends and family, and then finally to Portland, for some much needed R&R!  I am so excited to be visiting bookstores in each city!  Check out my list of events for my “Mini-West Coast Tour”:

Erectile dysfunction: Prescription Drugs VS Herbs

Happy Wednesday everyone!  Just a quick announcement this week:

Get the most from generics: Basic factors

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July!  Here in the Cleveland area we got not only a firework show but a heat lightening one as well, and I have to say the heat lightening was a bit more impressive!

Now back to children’s lit announcements.  I’m very excited to be participating in the 2012 Northern Ohio SCBWI Annual Conference here in Cleveland in September.  I will be presenting an illustration intensive discussing the illustrator’s responsibilities and role in putting together a successful picture book as well as teaching a breakout session on making a picture book, from start to finish.  Registration starts today for SCBWI members and July 20th for nonmembers.  Make sure to register soon for the breakouts and critiques you want because slots fill up fast!
