Cover Reveal is Live for my Middle Grade Adventure PIRATE ISLAND

It’s here! The cover reveal for my upcoming middle grade adventure PIRATE ISLAND is live! All exclamation points because I’m so excited to share. Illustrator Susan Tait Porcaro did such an amazing job bringing Billy and the spirit of the book to life. I’ll be sharing more about the cover process on the Middle Grade Minded blog on Monday, May 22, so be sure to stop by and read all about it.

Before I reveal the full paperback spread, which you’ll find exclusively here, I wanted to plug all the gracious bloggers who are hosting the reveal. A big thanks to all them! Be sure to check out their blogs and stop by on reveal day for more PIRATE ISLAND goodies.

Meet Me at the Annual Authors’ Festival at the Groton Public Library

Taking an afternoon off from the craziness of my NaNoWriMo goals to meet up with fellow authors and readers at the Groton Public Library’s Annual Authors’ Festival. If you’re local, stop on by and grab a signed book by one of the over 40 authors who will be there. Get a head start on your holiday shopping with gift wrapping available, enjoy the refreshments, and try your luck at one of the raffle prizes. It all starts at noon tomorrow (Saturday, November 5)!

Author Events Updates and Pictures

I’m very excited to let you all know that I’ll be attending the Annual Authors’ Festival at the Groton Public Library on Saturday, November 5, 2016. The event begins at noon with author talks, refreshments, door prizes, and a book sale/signing. There will be over 40 authors in attendance, so something for every reader. I’ll be there with bookmarks and copies of ELIXIR BOUND. I might even do some holiday shopping while I’m there…signed books make for great gifts (wink, wink!).

This is on the heels of my most recent author event at the Stratford Library for the national Indie Author Day. There were some great author talks, including fellow New England SCBWI member Stacy Barnett Mozer with her MG contemporary THE SWEET SPOT and Jared Topalian (who attended my first ever author talk–one of the few people there who wasn’t a friend or related to me!) with his fantasy ELIAS BROOK. Here’s the whole crew!
