Just got my submission MITCHELL’S MASTERPIECE submitted. Although winning would be a perk, I just hope the kids enjoy this humorous tale of creation.

My dad taught me there are things to take seriously, ourselves should never be one of them.

I look in the mirror and gain confidence that inside is a younger person still gleaming.

And then I look again and realize hat younger one is staring back wondering, “What the hell has happened?!?” 😉

I truly believe until we rescue the child in our own souls, we can never grow into the society we hope to become. Joyfully listen to the dreams, hope and tears of the innocent who still believe and blast through the jaded casings of adulthood to nurture, thrive and feel hearts while holding hands.

I’ve figured it out - who I’d like to be like when I grow up.

His life was based on genuine kindness, clear communication and gratitude. He had the uncanny ability to look into the minds of children and make them feel important.

After all, isn’t this what we strive for as we write KidLit?

I’m working on a quilt to go with my Annie Ant story. At least she made it to the land of baskets and juicy melons. 😉 Creativity w/o words. 😊

I did it.

Wayne Gretzky said, “You miss 100% of the shots you never take.

I took my shot and I’ll see what happens…🥅

What’s the worst that could happen? I’m iced for a bit and think, “Well puck that,” Then I roll up my sleeves & go back to work. 😉🏒

May our dreams come true!

I’m in love. The tree of knowledge, of good and evil, of dreamers and gleaners, of passion and performance, wishes and wanderings,…

Who would like one? And a comfy chair to go with it?
