Picture Book Submissions

Exciting times are here again!  I always get both excited and nervous when I submit my stories.  I had to take a hiatus for a few years to help my husband start our new business, but now that the business is on its feet and running, my writing is taking center stage again. So everyone cross your fingers, hold your tongue just right and pray a lot for me to get my picture book published.  It is very dear to my heart and reminds me of the fond memories I have of when my babies were babies.

Drew Dawson Davis Fan

Hello everyone, I know I've told you all that I'm taking a break from Twitter, Facebook and blogging to put focus on finishing book #2 and #3, but I have to share with you another web gem. I stumbled upon a talented singer on YouTube one evening and his voice just blew me away. His name is Drew Dawson Davis . I was searching for music to help me feel one of the characters in my book, so I was looking for a particular song which just happened to be Garth Brook's Shameless. I know, I know, ew! It's country music. Whatever. :P Intrigued, I began checking out each of his videos and now I have listened to each of his posted videos repeatedly. They have become a musical muse for working on. If you get a chance, check him out (and no, not all of his music is country). Here is a link to Drew Dawson Davis "Shameless" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUdIbdb_hA0 Ciao for now!

Web Gems

I love to find fun websites on the internet. Here are two sites I found this week. This first one is hilarious and someone could spend hours just reading through the funny, interesting, weird, disgusting, and sometimes “down right wtf were they thinking” text. This website is Txts Frm Lst Nght (Text From Last Night). Now I know we all have sent a text to someone that once we hit the “send” button we wished there was a “retrieve” button. This website showcases text messages sent that I am sure the sender wished they would not have sent. Lucky for us, the gracious recipient of the text message thought that the world would be a better place if they shared it with everyone. Not only does it exhibit the uncomfortable display of bad spelling, compromising situations and/or embarrassing circumstances, but you the reader also get a chance to reply and grade the text message. Talk about adding insult to injury, but it’s all in fun and (I hope) no one gets hurt. If you feel venturous here is the

Finally a new post!

I must appologize to all my readers, for not posting anything new lately. I know it is dreadfully boring to see the same postings over and over. I do want to say 'thank you' to all my faithful readers for continuing to check back each week. To my newest blog follower in Houston: Welcome! AND to my wonderful long time blog followers in Austin, Michigan, California, Georgia, North Carolina, etc.: You guys rock! As you all know, my favorite composer is Loren DiGiorgi. His music is beautiful and he loves to share it with everyone (as do I). Loren has made a YouTube video of his song "Stage 4". The song itself is very touching and the video suits the song quite well. I am sure you will enjoy it, so please take a moment to watch. Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bX1clj659F8 Now for another story: A few weeks ago I (and my son) had the opportunity to attend a writers workshop that was hosted by Wizard Academy. I took vacaction from work, drove the family man
