Lunchtime Adventures at the Durham Library!

I bet you thought that Pumpernickel Art had taken the summer off! Well, no...that would be nice, but we have something planned that's WAY more fun.

NEXT MONDAY (7/20), we're taking Burlwood Forest on the road to the Durham County Library (NC) for Lunchtime Adventures! Ages 1-18 are invited to stop by and enjoy a hot meal while listening to an AMAZING story. We can't wait!

Join Me at the Durham County Library (NC) in April!

It's the start of April and that's NO joke! Things are really starting to get busy at Pumpernickel Art.

In just a few weeks, I'll be finishing up my workshop series at the Durham County Library. This time, I'll be talking about publishing!

Then, the following weekend, I'll be at Teen Fest, an amazing first-year event featuring notable authors of young adult fiction and poetry!

Durham Library Teen Fest was INCREDIBLE!

Thanks again to everybody at the Durham County Library and The Regulator Bookshop for an INCREDIBLE Teen Fest this past Saturday!

Sure, I'm a couple days late saying it, but that's because it took me so long to recover from the awesomeness. Makes sense, right? Of COURSE it does!

I especially enjoyed meeting John Claude Bemis, JJ Johnson, Nathan Kotecki, Jen McConnel, Jacquelin Thomas, Dr. Gail Hayes and Deborah Wiles! Please support these amazing authors. They're the BEST!
