#Parents and #teachers do you have a child who is #deaf or who uses #ALS & might relate to a young character who faces similar challenges? Check out my #middlegrade #adventure #ShayTheBrave then feel free to post in comments other #book recs with deaf characters.

Writing is often akin to the ancient art of kintsugi. We reassemble the broken bits of ourselves, glue them together with golden words, and place them on display.
The value of your writing doesn't decrease based on someone else's inability to see its worth.

My entry ("Memories of a Lost Childhood") won top honors at an art show in 2023 at Shepherd Univ., WV, and appeared in the 2023 Anthology of Appalachian Writers (the Barbara Kingsolver vol.) along with two of my poems. Next month I'll be back at Shepherd presenting at a #writersconference. Join me!

Post a pic in comments of (one of) you fav children's books from your own childhood. Here's one of mine. Have you read it? It's out of print and hard to find, so if you ever give me a copy I'll be your slave forever.

I love the #art of Sienna Mayfair & have been keeping her work as a jealous little secret so I can collect it with little competition! But it's time to share her with the world. Find her wonderful art on #eBay literally for pennies sometimes! #CatsOfbluesky
