Be still my heart
I am off next week for California; visiting children and grandchildren; seeing friends including Mina, Eugene, and Andy; and attending the tennis tournament at Indian Wells, tickets for which Richard kindly surprised me with on Valentine’s Day. But I will be in virtual attendance at JLG’s free webcast on Thursday, March 17th from 3:00 to 3:30, where Deborah Ford and I will be discussing some of the season’s debut authors and illustrators. Do come.
And I hope you will check out the Horn Book’s new podcast, hosted by Guide Goddess Siân Gaetano and me. We are pretty much making it up as we go along, but if you want to hear the story about that time I dropped an f-bomb in a preschool story hour, have a listen.
