Hi again!

I know it's been a while since I've updated my site, but it's been a busy month or so for me and my family. I visited schools in the US as well as in Poland. At the end of May, my daughter, Emma, graduated from high school and turned 18! She got a summer job to make some money before she starts college in the fall. So, yes, it's been a busy time. But, it's all good. I'm especially proud of Emma. She worked very hard finishing high school and looking for the best college for her.

I promised to let you know when Birds on a Wire is available. My publisher told me that it would be available in September. So you could imagine my surprise when I saw it for sale last week after I gave a speech at a conference at the University of Minnesota. Be the first in your neighborhood to get a copy!

On April 19, I flew to Poland to work for a week at the American School of Warsaw. I had a wonderful time. The kids were great, and the teachers and librarians made me feel at home! If you'd like to see what the school is like, you can look here. And, if you'd like to see some pictures of Warsaw, I put a bunch of them in this gallery.

I'm happy to announce that A Kick in the Head will be issued in a paperback edition in Spring 2009, tentatively scheduled for March. I will post a definite publication date as soon as I know one.

Also, here is a link to an interview that appeared in Wild Rose Reader.
