Thanks everyone for your patience. I was traveling and unable to create posts beyond photography, but I’m home and ready to announce the winner.
Congratulations to Brinton Culp, winner of the giveaway from Heather Ferranti Kinser, author of IN A CAVE, illustrated by Bonnie Kelso and published by Gnome Road Publishing. Brinton, it’s a your choice giveaway, so when you email me, [Ljrwritenow at gmail.com] please let me know which prize you would like, they were listed in the interview post from October 3.
Next Tuesday, I’ll be sharing my interview with Ronni Diamondstein celebrating her upcoming book JACKIE AND THE BOOKS SHE LOVED, illustrated by Bats Langley.

I'm a reading specialist and award winning educator from Chicago. While living in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado for nine years, I spent time hiking on the trails with my Goldendoodle Charlie and friends, writing, working in a literacy program at the Boulder Public Library, and mentoring writers and teachers. I love visiting schools. My books combine STEM and Kindness. "Aliana Reaches for the Moon" a picture book that draws inspiration from the moon and the curiosity of children, inviting children to be creative, explore, and experiment. "An Accidental Hero: A Mostly True Wombat Story" a picture book told in the form of a newscast which skillfully balances the serious subject of forest fires with compassion and humor to help children navigate this important topic through the real events of 2020. I moved to Northern New Jersey in 2025 and am working on new projects.
