Oregon Spirit!
“After All, You’re Callie Boone” was chosen by the Oregon Council of Teachers of English as a 2010 “Honor Book”, which meant I had the chance to meet a bunch of great authors and teachers at the award ceremony. I was thrilled to be part of it all and will post a couple of photos soon.

Officially Launched!
Thanks to all of the folks who came to the Portland launch at A Children’s Place Bookstore. I hope you had as much fun as I did!
The gang's all here. . .
The staff was great and they even let me sign their “Author Table”, which is loaded with tons of autographs. I was pleased as punch to be a part of it.
Callie's favorite expression seemed like a good fit. . .
