Happy 2018! I am ready for some peace on earth this year, bring it on please!

I just returned from SCBWI’s annual New York Conference. It was great seeing old friends and meeting so many talented authors and illustrators. The workshops, gatherings, and keynotes by Dan Santat and Angie Thomas gave me much inspiration for my chapter book-in-progress, Growing Pains. It was also a great excuse to get dressed up in gold.

It’s nice to be back, but I guess it’s now time to get to work…
