9/23/2023 0 Comments It's been awhile, my friends...And I have some news to share!
First of all, my second picture book, Same Love, Different Hug, came out in June. Woohoo! I feel like I missed some of the excitement as I've been sick with a bad Crohn's flare up pretty much this whole year. I guess it's fitting since that book was partially inspired by my health struggles. But I'm starting to feel better and I'm so glad to see how others, especially kids, are connecting with the message in that book. Secondly, for fellow writers, it's Fall Writing Frenzy time! The amazing Kaitlyn Leann Sanchez is once again hosting this fun writing contest and I'm a prize donor this year. Check out the contest here and the prizes here. Good luck everyone! And lastly, stay tuned for the cover reveal of Unicycle Dad (Amicus Ink, 2024) next month. There will be a chance to win a manuscript critique AND art portfolio critique. Happy reading and writing!

Now that my fourth picture book, Camouflage Mom, has been announced, I can share with you all the very warm welcome that Cardinal Rule Press extended me. How fun to get a box of goodies at the beginning of the process! They packed a few samples of those caramels local to them in Michigan (I'm in California), but they were so delicious we ordered the big jar! And they included four beautiful Cardinal Rule Press picture books, which my kids devoured immediately. You can find my reviews of the below books (and many others) on my Goodreads account. Thank you, Cardinal Rule Press, for the very warm welcome!
