I'm currently working on a new kid's chapter book. The book will be a lot of fun just like "ShBeep the Unique Sheep." I will be doing all the illustrations again. The book will be funny with a good message.

Hi Robin,
I wanted to thank you for your great review of my book "ShBeep the Unique Sheep." I know it can be difficult when uniqueness seems like a liability rather than an asset. I wrote this book to encourage children to embrace their uniqueness as something good. I'm glad you can still relate to this story as an adult. The message of the book is pretty universal. If you felt unique as a child, chances are you probably still feel somewhat or maybe even more than somewhat unique as an adult. Thank you for spreading the word about the book. Hopefully this book will land in the hands of everyone who can be encouraged by it.
Thank you for your support and encouragement. It's readers like you who help get the word out to the rest of the reading world about good books. Thanks again and have a wonderful week.

I'm reading "Sense and Sensibility" and "The Old Man and the Sea." The writing style of these two books are as different as day and night. Both books can be considered literary masterpieces.

It came from my imagination. I daydream most of the day. I meditate daily so that I don't forget about the beauty around me.

I love to create. I have an extremely active imagination. Writing is not work to me.

Fight like a rabid dog! Writing is worth it. Having people place value on a book you wrote is a great feeling.

I'm usually not inflicted by this disease. Hopefully it's not contagious!
