That’s right. I wrote another book review, only this one is on a picture book retelling of Little Red Riding Hood. The book is written by Lari Don and illustrated by Célia Chauffrey.

I’m keeping my eye out for other possible publishers, but in theContinue reading “Update on My Stories”
Hi, all. Don’t forget my writing challenge, which I posted last week. I actually wrote my own little tale in the comments (and you’re free to add another scene to it if you want). Here’s the button that leads to the post.
