Greetings!
Hello! Happy September!

The response to WHERE THE MOUNTAIN MEETS THE MOON has been wonderful! The reviews  and comments have been so heartwarming; I hope the book continues to reach people. If it has reached you, maybe we can talk about it! See my virtual book chat offer below!

Also, this month is your last chance to enter my 3-month long contest, the grand prize drawn on Sept. 1st is your name or likeness in my next book.  Hope you enter!

WTMMTM_coverAs well as a download-able activity book and event kit (all you need for a book-themed party!), I am now offering free, virtual visits!

If your group ends up collectively purchasing 10 or more copies of WHERE THE MOUNTAIN MEETS THE MOON, I would be happy to schedule a free 15 minute question and answer Skype call with your readers. Perfect for after school book groups and mother-daughter book clubs, this allows your readers to meet the author "face to face"  an easy and convenient way.  All you need is a computer with a camera and internet access! Simply email me and we can schedule a time and a set of questions.
