Making a dream come true takes work, but it’s the kind of exhilarating work that scoffs at exhaustion and keeps the glow glowing.

I couldn’t be happier with my debut children’s book, “What’s at the End of Your Nose?” If you have kids or are a fan of kidlit that speaks to us all, I think you’ll find Sidney Snail and his adventures appealing.

And if you’re a coloring book aficionado or know someone who is, you’re doubly in luck, because my book has just the right kind of paper to make colored pencils very happy.

I’m planning a post that details how I got from “I’ve been writing all my life” to “Today I became a published author.”

Thank you all for your support!
