Hi Rhonda, thank you for your question today.
My biggest challenging aspect of writing books is time. Since I write and illustrate all of them, it takes awhile, roughly six months.
I spend a lot of time marketing my books also. One way that I'm trying to meet this challenge is to have a routine on what I do each day. Another is, I am planning out what I will feature on my website each week and month.
I'm currently looking for people to feature for this next year. My plan is to get that calendar filled way ahead of time so it will be there for when the time comes to post.
Thank you again for your question.
Have a great day!

Hi Jessica, thank you for your question today.
I loved the "Miss Piggle Wiggle" books. Before I became a reader, my sister read them all to me. I loved her "creative magical cures" she came up with for the children in her neighborhood.

Yes, I think her stories made an impact on my writing career. It's fun to create fantasies for children to image and read.

Thanks again for your note,

A lovely story how Roberta Flack began her journey into music. Not everything turned out the way it started, though. What a wonderful book for young readers to learn about this admired legend.
