The Trouble With Ralph, by Diana Lesire Brandmeyer, illustrated by Linda Bartosik, is now available for your reading pleasure as an e-book on Amazon. If anyone had ever told me that someday I’d have a book I illustrated on Amazon, I never would have believed it. After 8 months of not only artwork, . . . → Read More: It’s Out! What LEGACY do you want to create with your life? What is the central message of your gift to the world and EXACTLY HOW do you get that gift out of the idea stage and MANIFESTED in the actual world? While you’re still alive. If ever I was posed a question that made me take . . . → Read More: Some Question!

The first week of August at the annual Cape Cod Writers Center Conference. I always call this week summer camp for adults.

I get to reconnect with people I . . . → Read More: Summer Camp – Day 1 This week I had the pleasure of teaching a Young Authors Workshop to five fine writers at Firefly Moon in Arlington. They were a lively group – we shared much laughter and fun, along with many serious moments and quiet writing times. It was the best balance for inspiration to bloom into the wonderful work . . . → Read More: Another Great Workshop! When I first accepted my illustrating project the excitement wore off as soon as I started to begin the actual work and fear set in. Fear that I couldn’t do it fast enough.
