INTERVIEWS: I want you! Yes, you...

I am looking for new writers, old writers, young writers, seasoned writers, writers from different countries, any writer to be interviewed.

This blog is now averaging 2,000 reads per month - which is pretty cool since I am awful with promotion, and really don't know how to reach the masses....so thank you for viewing.

Pass this on to your writer friends. It's a great way to promote yourself and your work.

Because of Winn-Dixie

Great book to help new writers understand how to write a younger middle grade novel. That’s why I picked it up, but I got to really love Opal and Winn-Dixie and didn’t want it to end!
