I'm visiting schools and libraries in Missouri and Arkansas. It's a fabulous time with kids, educators, parents, and other writers.
The students at Branson Elementary East helped keep me on my toes yesterday. (Yes, over a week of presentations and writing "funshops" can be wearing too.) One student told me, as she left the assembly, that I'd been saying "non-fiction" when I meant "fiction". Thank you. These kids are SO smart! They also wondered why I called my character in Roar of a Snore Maggie instead of Molly on my March post to them. So sorry. I meant Molly Olsen. Where did Maggie come from? Maybe I was thinking of another story I'm currently working on - Maggie and The Halloween Monsters.
Thank you, Branson Elementary East students, for helping to keep me on my toes and for being so patient when I was sipping tea and coughdrops in an effort not to loose my voice. As Lily would say, "You are MOOvelous."

I'm so glad you're visiting Missouri! I got to hear you speak at the Children's Literature Festival last Tuesday and enjoyed the time.
