On the Road Again

Monday, March 30th, 2009

This week I am preparing for a book signing in San Jose.  It will be held in a charming shop where I have secured a space for my books and prints.  Cottage Crafts Boutique is a new venture and I will be a part of their celebration of being in business for 15 years.  I am looking forward to a new experience and will let you know how it turns out.

Visit to Citrus School

Monday, March 30th, 2009

I recently had the pleasure of sharing my Perry the Pack Rat stories with the students of Citrus School.  It was especially nice for me as I began kindergarten and went through fourth grade at Citrus.  I love the old building, and pride radiates through it’s halls.  The principal, Cherie McGuire and her staff are an amazing group, completely dedicated to giving each student information and the courage to move forward.  They are studying about writing and the skills necessary to become a writer.  After reading my stories, the students were bursting with questions, and it was truly a joyful day.  I spent the remainder of the day visiting classrooms where I was able to interact on a more personal level.  It was great fun and the atmosphere at Citrus School is wonderful.
