Spotlight on writing
Most of the time, I'm at my computer typing away—just like now!—but sometimes I do a virtual hop, skip, and a jump over to a blog hosted by terrific children's authors such as Kirby Larsen, Cynthia Leitich Smith, and Storystorm's Tara Lazar. Sometimes I stop by to answer questions, sometimes they're reviewing one of my super awesome books, and sometimes I'm a guest blogger discussing the ins and outs of writing for children. Instead of repeating everything I've ever said about everything right here, click on the links to get the full story.
