April Interviews

               Good Morning Updates

    Besides writing poetry over at Rena Traxel's blog On the Way to Somewhere during the month of April wanted to share a few more fun updates with you.

    I was recently interviewed over at  The Restless Writer hosted by talented author Sarah Perry. Sarah's children's picture book Pajama Girl was last year's grand prize winner of the  MeeGenius Great Author Challenge 2010.  Congratulations Sarah and thank you so much for my interview. I had a lot of fun answering all your questions.

       Also, I wanted to share that I was asked by my author buddy Bethany Telles over at her blog Perched in a Tree to be a guest today. Every Wednesday she has a feature called,  I ponder...Wednesdays where she asks her followers to take a second and think about really interesting questions about the craft of writing and more.  I'm very honored that she asked me to be her first guest blogger and I hope you'll check it out. (it may not be up just yet since she lives in CA) Click here to be directed. 
 Thank you Bethany, I enjoyed really enjoyed Pondering up a question for your blog!!!

      Tomorrow, I'll be launching my very first weekly feature titled Let's Ask every Thursday. I'll post the results of a children's book question that I've asked someone (ex different writers/illustrators/agents/editors) along with their answer. This week I've asked my critique partner who is also a fellow 12 x 12 in 2012 to participate. Stop back tomorrow to find out the question and answer if you like.

     One more exciting announcement to make is an upcoming interview with illustrator Lara Apponyi along with a giveaway. Lara is the illustrator for my book Poison Apple Pie and she willingly accepted to do an interview here at my blog. Thank you Lara. Post date not set yet.
