I recently attended the Southern Kentucky Bookfest, where I was on a panel with the fabulous authors Gaby Triana and Michael Buckley. Thanks to everyone who came out — it was such a fun day!

Posing with me at the Meet the Authors reception are Gaby Triana, Dennis Calero, Michael Buckley, Ashley Folkes and Dawn Hall. (photo copyright WKU Libraries)

J. Kaye and Nona Oldner of J. Kaye’s Book Blog reviewed Boots and Pieces and are having a book giveaway. To enter, just click here and leave a comment. The deadline is January 3.
Good luck!

I was lucky enough to participate in this year’s Winter Blast Blog Tour, and was interviewed by the terrific Little Willow on her blog, Bildungsroman. You can check out the interview here.

Boots and Pieces and The Curse of Cuddles McGee are nominated for Cybils awards! Boots and Pieces was reviewed by one of the judges in the middle grade fantasy category — Nettle, of The Puck in the Midden, here. (scroll down for the review)

And I’m very psyched to have found The Curse of Cuddles McGee for sale on this site — HamsterFizz — which is described on its homepage as the place “where you will find everything for your gerbil or hamster.” Including, apparently, spooky stories about their undead relatives. How awesome is that?
