Figuring Out A Blog's Purpose
While I was writing my book, "The Reindeer Keeper"-a heartwarming Christmas story geared to adults and released 10/10, everyone kept telling me I had to have a blog. I put if off for as long as I could for a few reasons. I didn't understand blogging and even if I did start this thing called blogging-what did I have to say? I knew it had to do something with the book-but what? When the light bulb went off-it was like a spotlight. Of course-I would write about growing up in the country for it was…See More

Lauren Salkin replied to Barbara Briggs Ward's discussion Writing is writing in the group Moms that Write"Congratulations!!!! Great advice: Lesson learned-write what ever stirs your mind and heart! A writer has got to be passionate about his/her writing. How can a reader fall in love with a writer's words if the writer doesn't love them."

Writing is writing
It never dawned on me when writing my first work of fiction for adults-"The Reindeer Keeper" that some would ask my why I switched from writing/illustrating picture books to writing for adults. I never felt I switched. I felt an urge to write this story stirring in my mind that happened to be for adults. I put it off as long as I could. I didn't know if I had it in me to sit still and write a book with chapters; a book that took adult characters from page one straight through to the last page.…See More

"Snarly Sally" doesn't like to have her hair brushed. Do you know a "Snarly Sally"?
While on the road with the first two "Snarly Sally" picture books I met so many moms, grandmas, aunts, siblings of their version of a "Snarly Sally"-my little character I created when my daughter was a toddler with a daily head of snarls and tangles and a major dislike of sitting still to have her hair brushed. I even met many who grew up being a "Snarly Sally" themselves!
With the third "Snarly Sally" picture book soon to be released for this…
