New Children's book coming soon....
Hi all,
Things are looking up for my latest picture book. I have two more spreads to finish and some detail work. I'm hoping to release it by Valentine's Day. This book is a basic concept book about shapes and some fun things they do! It's been great fun to write and illustrate. I even got some great ideas from the Pre-K kids at school, which have been included in the book. They are great helpers!
It should be a fun one for children to enjoy and discover. And as with all of my children's books...

For Mom...
I know it's not Mother's day, but I've had a Dad poem on here for quite some time, so it's time I honored mothers too. My mother and I are very close, so when I wrote this poem, I meant it. She has been my inspiration and my biggest fan my entire life. Since I was a very small child, she encouraged me to write poetry and to never stop. So here I am - years later still writing poems.
This one is for you Mom. Thank you for your never ending support, I love you.
Comes on many gifts.

Thankfulness
It's that time of year again when everyone has turkey and Thanksgiving on their minds. The past few years have led to some big changes for me in my life and family. And I must say I'm very thankful for all of it. The good and the not so good.
I've learned through some hard knocks that sometimes even though we may resist certain changes in our lives, they usually turn out for the best in the long run. Sometimes things are not what they seem at first, but given time, they turn out to be exactly...

Happy Independence Day!
This year to celebrate Independence day, I'm going to do it by celebrating Independent Authors and Artists everywhere! This is a fabulous time to be a writer or designer/artist or any other kind of creative person. Being able to self publish has given authors the chance to not only express themselves, but the possibility of making a living or even supplemental income, that they may not have been able to do before. Along with ebooks and POD's for printed books, as with Amazon, Barnes &...
