What should I share on my Facebook page?
Following on from last weeks post about why I have a Facebook page, I thought I’d continue with some ideas of what to share on your Facebook page. As an unpublished author, we don’t have the author events or book snippets that published authors have to share, or the...
I joined Pintrest!
With all these picture book challenges, I’ve been looking around for inspiration. Many, many of my Facebook friends use Pintrest, so I thought I’d check it out. If you haven’t heard of Pintrest before, it’s basically an online notice board where you can find inspiring...
Am I nuts?
On Facebook, a friend told me about a Picture Book Marathon that is happening during February. The idea is to write 26 picture book drafts during February… I’m wondering if I should sign up for this or not. I know that so far for 12×12 in 12 I have finished one draft...

WoW – 12 Days of Christmas
It’s Write on Wednesday time again. I’m excited this week as one of the two prompts was the one I suggested! Based on this, you would think I’d get my story up early, but this idea has been floating around all week & I’ve just had the time to write it up. I hope...
