Opportunity

Another author visit last week—this time a class of high school seniors who are in the middle of writing their own children's books for a creative writing class. They were a fairly attentive bunch during my PowerPoint-directed ramblings about lessons learned along the publication pathway. They really seemed to perk up, however, when I read Mumsi Meets a Lion. I think they enjoyed it—at least as much as high schoolers can enjoy a children's picture book. Or should I say "as much as high schoolers will allow themselves to enjoy a children's picture book."

One sweet girl asked to meet with me about her hopes of becoming an author. I look forward to trying to mentor an aspiring writer!
