After many late hours, many cups of coffee, and many experiments gone haywire, it's finally arrived. That's right, folks! I'm delighted to announce the release of my sixth book in the DOYLE AND FOSSEY: SCIENCE DETECTIVES series, The Case of the Terrible T. rex, for children ages 8-11. (Of course, I couldn't have done it without the help of Drake Doyle and Nell Fossey, the sharpest science detec...

“It is good to have an end to journey towards, but it is the journey that matters, in the end.”
― Ursula K. LeGuin
― Ursula K. LeGuin
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
― Marianne Williamson, Return to Love
― Marianne Williamson, Return to Love
“If we all did the things we are capable of, we would astound ourselves.”
― Thomas A. Edison
― Thomas A. Edison
“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

Thanks, Laurel. It has been an amazing journey of ups and downs, and now I'm on the up and feeling pretty good. I rely on my network of friends, especially other authors, to uphold me through the tough spots and to laugh with me when the going is good. I wish you every success in all your writing ventures!
you look like you are a very industrious hard-working writer, Michelle, and deserve all the success you have. Laurelhttp://laurel6346.tripod.com
I am 65 and my wife Evie is 69. We have 5 children and 7 grandchildren, an "adopted not offically" son and five of his chilren are also considered grandchildren. We have read all of Michele's Voyages of ... books. I have read Beloved Rabbi. I recomend all of these books to any Grandparent, Parent, or Teenager.
Heather wrote: "I love your Doyle and Fossey books. When can I expect to see a new one?"Hi Heather! Thanks for asking about the Doyle and Fossey books.
Books 1 and 2 are being re-released by Sterling in June, 2009, as paperbacks. Books 3 and 4 will follow in Sept, 2009. In 2010 (not sure what month exactly), book 5, THE CASE OF THE CROOKED CARNIVAL, will be released.
Cheers,
Michele
