I’ve created an entry for #50PreciousWords This contest is offered by Vivian Kirkfield. I’ve been lucky to be part of Vivian’s debut year, she has three books coming out and I have one, but who’s counting? We met through Picture Book Buzz which is a fantastic group of authors and illustrators. The contest runs through March 6, if you’d like to enter.
Sitting Atop the World
Together. Like a team. We climb.
Feel the strength underfoot.
My hand waits, if you need it. Reach for blue sky.
The branches are like stairs. We climb.
The tree holds us, hugs us, loves us.
Lean my way. Feel the sun’s warmth. Beauty surrounds us.
Sitting atop the world.

Not this year… unless I get a rush of inspiration over lunch tomorrow. (: Last year was great inspiration for what I think is one of my best stories.

Thank you so much! It was fun to write and then I was revising word by word. It felt good to work on something completely fresh.
