2021 Excitement

2020 was a hard year for all of us.  2021 brings renewed hope and opportunities.  I’m excited to share with you where I’m at in my book journey and where I’m headed.

Despite some delays I’m happy to report that my 6th children’s book, The Tale of Kitten and Ladybug, will be ready for publication in another month or so.  The Tale of Kitten and Ladybug is the story of a kitten and ladybug who strike up an unlikely friendship.  They love to have fun and play games until one day someone tries to spoil their fun.  It’s a rhyming story about diversity suitable for ages 3 to 6.

All proceeds from the sale of this book will go to support Tabby’s Place – A Cat Sanctuary, located in Ringoes New Jersey.  You can find out more about Tabby’s Place and the wonderful work they do by visiting their website www.tabbysplace.org

In August last year I signed a publishing contract with Pen It!  Publications, a publisher located in the Midwest.  Pen It! will be publishing two children’s books for me:  John’s Best Day Ever, about a little boy’s first train ride, and Me and Only Me, a story about being yourself.  A third publication will be Think of Me, a story of loss and remembrance, suitable for both children and adults.  I’m privileged and honored to be working with Pen It! on these new ventures.

John’s Best Day Ever will be the first book published by Pen It!  When the situation permits I will be doing a book signing event at a local train museum.  More info to come.

Everyone has a favorite book.  Mine is my 4th children’s book, Lucy’s Way Home.   I published Lucy last year but as of late it’s gained some momentum.  A woman with a YouTube channel reading children’s book may be reading Lucy.   A large bookstore in a mall may consider carrying Lucy.  I use the word may as all these things are still in the works.  More info to come.

Thank you so much to all who support me.  As I get more updates I will post here.
