Story at Literature4Kids
Hi, Peeps!
I am pleased to announce one of my short stories is in this month’s online kid’s mag, Literature4Kids. This one is about a crab called Tarquin — named after one of my son’s hermit crabs. And, yes. It is an anthropomorphic kid’s story. I write those, too. So there.
In other news, I am busy entertaining company from Scotland, writing Christmas greeting cards (gotta love those holiday deadlines in July!), and enjoying my kids.
I’ve been reading, too! Just finished Boys Are Dogs, by Leslie Margolis. Lots of fun, and funny, too. The perfect “beach read” for an eleven-year-old girl. Er, or for me. (I’m secretly reading middle-grade girl books now. Just wait.I have a reason.)
What are you reading this summer?
