I've been hinting at something for a while over on the Pumpernickel Art Facebook page. If you haven't seen it yet, check it out-www.facebook.com/pumpernickelart

I can't tell you what it is, but I CAN tell you the first place you'll see it.

NEXT TUESDAY, April 21st, I'll be at Durham Bulls Education Day!!! That's right, it's time to step up to the plate for literacy at America's most famous minor league ballpark with FREE Burlwood Forest bookmarks, an AMAZING prize pack and a wacky game where YOU get to help me write a short story! Hashtag Awesome. Oh wait, ‪#‎Awesome‬

To learn more, check out the Bulls at http://www.milb.com/content/page.jsp?...

We had the BEST time at Durham Bulls Education Day today! Thanks to everybody who came out to our table and checked out Burlwood Forest! You're the BEST!

Head to @burlwoodforest and www.facebook.com/pumpernickelart for a few pictures from the big day. Don't forget to come back tomorrow to see who won our prize pack! Did YOU win? It depends...did you enter? We're also going to reveal the fan-created picture that we're going to write a short story about. We are SO PUMPED UP!

Wait...aren't I supposed to announce the winner of the Durham Bulls Education Day prize pack today?!? Good news, I totally am RIGHT NOW!

Congratulations to Glenn E! You just won a Burlwood Forest mug AND book! Thanks to everyone who participated! You're awesome!

That's not the ONLY news today though. Head to the Pumpernickel Art Facebook page to see the reveal of the two fan made pictures my NEW short story is going to be based off of. Wish me luck...This should be fun!

Want to know something that's too good to be true, but actually IS true? A week from today, Thursday, May 7th, I'm BACK at Durham Bulls Education Day. Don't miss out on this awesome event, especially if you didn't make it to the first one. There are only two events. This is it.

And speaking of amazing things, you should check out my friend Lee Wolf and his NEW book, Romance is for Other People! You can find out more info about it here- http://thenovelee.blogspot.com/

Tomorrow is Education Day 2 at the Durham Bulls and Pumpernickel Art will be there! That's right, FREE stickers, FREE bookmarks and LOTS of other cool stuff that we should probably figure out.

Not that we want to encourage you to skip work or anything, but if you happen to accidentally find yourself at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park for three hours tomorrow, make sure you get there at 11:05am. ‪#‎thebreadisback‬

In case you missed my Carolina RailHawks​ Camp Out Night live Tweeting action (@burlwoodforest), last night was a total blast! Head to www.facebook.com/pumpernickelart for even more pictures!

From a record crowd, to a sprinkler mishap, it really was a LOT of fun. Plus, I got to read a little Burlwood Forest! THAT was cool.

I'm not going to lie though, I didn't get a lot of sleep...But hey, who needs that?

I'll be heading out EARLY tomorrow morning to visit my friends at Granite Quarry Elementary and Hawks Nest Intermediate School down near Charlotte, NC. Because, well, I just can't stop telling people about Burlwood Forest!

#BurlwoodCampOut

Summer is over, and all last week I talked about the brand NEW School Visits section of www.burlwoodforest.com. I really enjoyed sharing with you why I love what I do, but now I want YOU to be involved!

Are you a media specialist, or a teacher of a 3rd-8th grade class in North Carolina? Would you like to inspire your students with an exciting and interactive presentation by a local author?

Head to http://www.burlwoodforest.com/schools to request an appearance TODAY! ‪#‎BacktoSchool‬

Thanks to everybody who came out to Durham Bulls Education Day yesterday! We really enjoyed hanging out and can't wait for the second one next month.
