12 x 12 Check-In September 2017
Wow, we are turning into the 4th quarter of 2017. September is never a favorite month of mine, and this one was no different. BUT, I did write a new draft! It’s terrible, but I think it has promise. I’m spending some time thinking about what I want to accomplish with my writing before the […]

12 x 12 Featured Author September 2017 – Anna Forrester
LOVE WRITING September is a great—if bittersweet—month: kids head back to school, garden plants fade and droop, and days fold in on themselves. And, we rediscover chunks of time for work. (Or if we teach, we begin a new juggle!) I love getting back to my desk, because I love words and language and stories, […]
12 x 12 Check-In August 2017
I was almost going to be bummed that I didn’t write a new draft this month, or even revise an old one. But then I realized I’ve done hours and hours of study, research, and reading to prepare my presentation on layers in picture books for Picture Book Summit this coming October. There is no […]

12 x 12 Featured Author August 2017 – Robin Currie
12×12 peeps! Back in simpler times, I was a children’s librarian. (“Simpler” also meant that books were on stone tablets and shelving was awful!) I published a number of books in the fields of library program resources and children’s Bible stories. Then I answered the call to ordained ministry and shifted my writing to weekly […]
12 x 12 July 2017 Check-In
Excuse me while I hyperventilate over the fact that there are only 5 months left in this year… Okay, thanks. No new draft for me this month, but I DID revise. I also got to attend the SCBWI conference in LA and meet about 40 of you. THAT was the highlight for me. I am […]
