Caroline! This is great news! That is a beautiful story and deserves to be published. Your Roaring Brook career is well underway! Congrats and happy new year!

Whar beautiful arrangements of your collection and beautiful photographs. I love the idea of collecting a specific year and theme. May your year be full of more fun collecting, good writing, awards, and no more sinus infections.
I got good news just before the new year. Roaring Brook bought the manuscript about Ruth Asawa that I read to your editor when she visited Hollins. Her positive response helped inspire me to keep working on it so thanks for setting up that opportunity.
Peace,
Caroline

Well, good luck or not, I won’t be promoting spiders or their webs here. Not that we get that many of them. 🙂 It’s been mostly dark and rainy here. I’m looking forward to longer days! xxoo, e

Any of my books being a Cybils Finalist is an honor! Won’t win but I’m still thrilled!

I’m afraid to think about 2018! Just get me through this month (only two books to write and a class syllabus to create).

Cheers to you and Len!

Oh! Happy New Year to you, too! Be glad you’re not here–it’s 8 degrees!

I knew you’d have a fit about the spiders! It’s their webs, they are good luck. I think this is part of the spider’s web in the barn on Christmas Eve legend.

I long for simpler times too. Yes, I marvel at and depend on modern technology, but I think in some ways it’s made people less courteous and caring.

Sorry to hear about the yucky sinus infection. Glad it’s not pneumonia!

What will 2018 bring? BTW, Congrats on having Tooth Fairy’s Night named as a Cybils Finalist. 🙂
