The Monster “Thank You” Post – part 1

February 10, 2010

The SCBWI-NY Winter Conference has come and, too quickly, gone. I had a grand time roaming the city, but had even more fun sharing viral marketing and promotional information with my fellow SCBWI members.

It’s a Survey. Yea!!

January 21, 2010

August 10, 2009

There’s an old saw – The Cobbler’s kids have the worst shoes. That is definitely how I’ve been feeling about this blog lately.
