  2023 Update

 W is for Wonderkid continues to do well.  I have been able to do some additional book readings at area schools, and develop my presentation more effectively each time.  
 
It is also still for sale on Amazon, as well as in our local bookshop, Ballyhoo Books and Brew.  A good read for parents, teachers, and young people. 


August 2017:

Welcome book number two to my shelf!  After many years of blood, sweat and tears...and smiles and hugs and laughter...W is for Wonderkid is born!

Available on Amazon.com, as well as through the Indie writers site, we are looking forward to helping adults find one more way of helping children find the Superheroes in themselves - building strong character and standing up to bullies.



Available in paperback edition

Fall 2012:

We loved putting together this volume of short stories.  A number of contributors bring  multiple perspectives to the time surrounding the birth of Jesus.   This book can be used as a weekly study guide throughout the Advent season.

Journalism

For a number of years I wrote and illustrated (with photographs) human interest stories for a mid-Michigan publication title Life in the Middle of Michigan.  It was a wonderful experience, both taking me to knew locations and teaching me more about a variety of topics.  
 
Unfortunately, the publication just didn't make it.  The community/area in which we live just wasn't wide-ranging enough to support it.  But what a great growth experience, when I could hone my skills and stretch myself outside my normal boundaries.

Happy Week- being home and loving photography

Roamin Meets the GPS- Stories from the Road Lisa, my favorite Curious Girl , created a wonderful idea for a week of "happy" posts. Share those things which make you happy, bring joy to your life, and generally fill you with happy thoughts (I do love the movie Hook , with Robin Williams). We are just returned from our fabulous 23-day, 5600 mile, 10 state, 4 time-zone adventure, and I am filled with happy thoughts today. I am also aware of the piles of laundry, the dirty car, the grocery shopping, and the weary body. Those are not the things I'll share today! Today it's about the joy of road-tripping. The miracle that we live in such a country that everywhere you go you see something to celebrate. I love driving down the road and seeing something new, or different, or unexpected. We drove for a very long time across the upper mid-west, while following signs for "Wall Drugs." Apparently this is a historic stop, originally a place for those who crossed the coun...

Celebrating 100 Posts - A Challenge

Yes, we are closing in on our 100th post . Truly amazing. Thank you for reading and participating, helping keep the ideas, words and photos flowing. In honor of this momentous occasion, let's have a party. A party where "100" is featured. Do not become concerned if an idea doesn't pop into your head right away. You have one week to come up with something which includes 100 . Think party, celebration and fun. Think creatively. Think challenge. Photography is about expressing yourself, and challenging yourself. Here's a real stretcher! Celebrate with us by posting a photo (or series) which depicts the number 100 in some way. Let me know if you're going to participate and I'll create a way for everyone to link to each other's pages - chuckling, laughing, crying and surprising. You'll be amazed what you see when you start looking. Still at a loss? Here is a non-exhaustive look at the number 100: 100 years ago (something nostalgic- there's wigg...

Here We Go...

Meet our Roaming Gnome. He's busy looking at the map and helping us get ready to begin our adventure across the northern part of the United States. We leave Friday morning, and our house is a total disaster as we decide what we need to take and what we can leave behind. It's a camping journey - tent camping. We have not done this in ages and are a bit nervous about it. But we're prepared: tent, ground cover, sleeping bags, camp stove, cooking tools, food, clothing (well, after the laundry is finished), maps, books, notebooks, camera gear, bug spray, camera gear, sunscreen, camera gear - you get the picture:). This little gnome caught my fancy. I do believe you recognize him from some Travelocity commercials, though I haven't compared them side-by-side. He came with a passport, and a little history of garden gnomes and their journeys. It seemed so appropriate to have one, as a garden gnome begins in the country, in the garden, and then takes a journey away from that saf...
