“I got sunshine on a cloudy day…”

13 Nov 2009 reviews 0 Comments

We’re expecting rain all day today as this “nor’easter” moves along the Atlantic coast, but I’ve got three things to brighten my day: 1) I wrote a new chapter last night, and if I do say so myself, it’s GREAT; 2) the young ladies over at Taste Life Twice have posted a fabulous review & interview about Wish, and 3) I’m meeting Neesha Meminger and Lyn Miller-Lachmann for breakfast!  Tomorrow I’ll be selling & signing books at the ABENY Conference up in Harlem—if you’re an educator in the NYC-area, do drop by; there’s still room in some of the workshops…
