Today, April 16th, 2013 is National Librarian Day - I'd like to thank all the Librarians who have promoted Literacy and Reading! I'm sure you've been a major influence on many of the wonderful writers out there as well.
Congratulations to you!

Stumbled across a chat room in which several people were having an in-depth book discussion about one of my books. I must admit it made me nervous about what I might read, but thrilled that the book was being discussed. An editor once told me never read reviews of your own books. He wanted to know how many books I would have read in my high school/college literature classes if they had had reviews posted in advance? How would you describe books like Grapes of Wrath, War and Peace, Isaac Asimov's I, Robot? I left the chat room and followed the editor's advice - just keep reading!
