Upcoming Events

Hey, y’all! I hope you’re doing well. I’ve been really busy homeschooling, helping my mama, writing, etc. And loving it.

I’m a complete novice at formatting books, but I’ve been hard at work figuring it all out. Fingers crossed I will catch on sooner than later. I would like to have an ebook as well as a hard copy of my books. Canva has been a great tool to work with. Doing all this from scratch gives me a greater appreciation for traditional publishing. There’s so much more to do when you self-publish.

I have mentioned a few books that I’m working on and hope to have in print soon, but the one I’m most excited about is a pirate chapter book for kids, titled PiRats. It is the story of Rigley and his adventures on the high seas as he sets off in search of a way to save his family home. If you’ve read The Magic Telescope, you will find a familiar character in PiRats.

I’ve been working on PiRats since 2008/2009. What can I say? You make plans and then life laughs. But I’m nearly finished! (Knock on wood!) I’m wrapping up two books (Halloween Night and Other Poems and Zombiesaurs), then I will focus on PiRats wholeheartedly. My author friend Bradley Wind was kind enough to design my cover. I absolutely love it. I feel like announcing it to the world will give me more motivation to get it wrapped up.

So, look for the release of these three books soon. Also, I am hopefully attending a children’s book festival in Shreveport, LA in May. More on that once I’ve actually signed up. I’ll be sure to get you all the info.

Mississippi Folklore‘s group has reached over 1.5K members! I am loving the community. If you love Mississippi and Southern Folklore, come check it out.

Happiness being a dessert so sweet,
May life give you more than you can ever eat.

God Bless,
