Speaking of author promotions…
If any of you are in the Atlanta area, the Decatur Book Festival is going on this weekend. Our friend Mary Ann Rodman will be on the children’s stage Saturday at 3:00 PM. Stop by if you have a chance.
Another local author and newfound friend, Connie Fleming, will be on the Emerging & Exhibiting Authors Stage, Sunday 3:20 pm. She also writes historicals–has a historical/mystery out that sounds great. Finder’s Magic.
Also Diane Shore will be there on the Children’s Stage, Sunday 4:00 pm. She’s got some great books out, full of fun language and deep thought. And she also pretty doggone funny.
Elizabeth Dulemba–I don’t know her, but I sat next to her once at a conference–who is a wonderful illustrator, will be appearing twice. On the Mingei World Arts, Saturday 11:30 am and on the Children’s Stage, Sunday 5:00 pm.

Well, Marie, one of these years you will have to come down and visit me. We could go to SCBWI SpringMingle together. That is, if you’re into writing children’s books as well as reading them. Well, even if you aren’t into writing, you’d get to meet some authors and you could interview them for your blog or something. Wouldn’t that be fun?
You could even drag that cousin of yours along. She needs to start submitting her novel–that brilliant fantasy for middle graders. Hey, when she’s a famous author we can get her to sign up for a blog tour with us. Yes!
