…I was in Woodstock! Although I was sad to have missed her visit*, it was wonderful to be home celebrating the launch of Words That Start With B. I chatted with friends, family, former teachers, kids, and many others who came out to show their support. Special thanks to Janine and the welcoming staff at Merrifield’s Book Shop for such a lovely event. For those who were unable to make it but are interested in a signed book, there are a few copies left!

*Career Goal: tea with my favourite children’s authors, including Suzanne Collins. I imagine it being presided over by her Royal Highness of Middle Grade, Judy Blume. We would all wear fancy hats. Maybe J.K. Rowling would host it at her Scottish castle …the ultimate pipedream!
