Welcome to my Blog

Welcome to my official blog. If you're looking for something in particular, you might want to type keywords into the search feature on the left-hand side of the page. And I've added a BLOG INDEX on its own page (a bit more complete than the one below) to make it easier. Poking around is also encouraged.

And please do leave comments! Don't be confused by the "author" field in the comment form. When you are writing a message to me and my readers, you are the author. (Nice role reversal, huh?)

The Hat Says...

It's August first.  And some of you know I've been collecting entries for a giveaway through June and July, for which I promised to announce a winner in early August.

What you may not know is that when I say I'll draw a name out of a hat, I mean it quite literally.  So here is the hat in question, an Australian Akubra that was given to me as a gift while I was touring Australia and New Zealand in 2001.  

Ella is normally a bit camera-shy, so why she decided to plant herself front and center in one of these shots, I can't say.  But I saw no reason to push her away.

Enough of that.  Time to say whose name came out of the hat.

Sarah E.  The winner of the Jumpstart the World advance reader's copy is Sarah E.

For those of you who entered but did not win this time, good news and bad.  Bad news is, that was my last ARC.  Good news, I'll be receiving a carton of author hardcovers in a couple of months.  And, when I do, there will be more giveaways.

So please stay tuned.
