Holiday Feelings


On November 16, I attended the CBIG annual portfolio review in NYC. I had the pleasure of meeting and showing my portfolio to Christine Kettner, Art Director from Houghton Miffin Harcourt and Beth Terrill, Editor from North South. The reviews were positive and the event was a wonderful experience.
I am moving forward on my story and following up on suggestions...

This year, I enjoyed Thanksgiving with my daughter and her fiance's family in Florida. Dinner was delicious! We always watch the Macy's Day parade and the National Dog show.  In case you haven't heard... This year, Nathan the bloodhound won! My personal favorite,YEAH!

January,
Start the Year off Write 2014, for more info visit Shannon's blog, http://www.shannonabercrombie.com
It was fantastic! I completed my first on-line challenge this year, 21 days of writing prompts to jump start your creativity. The guest authors and ilustrators shared their inspiration, and the prompts were fun, insightful and very helpful in sparking one's imagination. I was also able to use some of my ideas from PiBoIdMo, an on-line picture book idea challenge, offered in November 2013. For more info, visit the author who started this up, http://taralazar.com/ Great exercises, and I will definetly do this again in November.
