Literacy Event in Chino Hills

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

I’m really excited because at the 4th Annual Festival of Books I was invited to participate in a literacy event happening this Tuesday, March 2 at a school in Chino Hills.  Short notice but I will get to read The Quiet Lion to more people.  Yay!  I’m getting better at doing the voices of the characters and I always love the questions from the students afterwards.  Doesn’t hurt that they treat me like a famous person either!!  Thank you Dawn.  I’m looking forward to getting all the details!

Monday, February 15th, 2010

Congratulations to Tammy and Davey Ruiz on their newborn baby girl. Kalaya Celyn Ruiz arrived on January 24, 2010 at 8:13pm after 21 hours of labor. She was 7 lbs 7 ounces with some nice dark hair just like her dad’s!

You may be a momma now but you are still my favorite ‘Red Aunt’. Lots of love to your family.

Visit To Torrey Hills Elementary School

Monday, February 15th, 2010

I had a great time visiting the second-graders at Torrey Hills Elementary School in January. Thanks for being such a great audience while I read my book. I was so impressed with all your questions especially about the writing process. I hope to see some of your original works submitted to our Kidz Korner page soon!
