I sure hope that this video is an entrant in the Have a Happy Hallow-wii contest. I found it via tltrent so I can’t tell you whether it is or not, but I hope these teens know about it! Deadline is this week, so if you’re working on an entry, make sure and send an [...]

Since I’m short on time, I’ll just point you to a couple other who have already posted about the weekend.
Pictures at halseanderson and kmessner.
Cheryl has a recipe from another editor that’s to die for.
Oh, and an unexpected highlight–I met the author of a picturebook I’d enjoyed as a kid! I never knew it was written [...]

Oh, what a weekend! I don’t have time this morning to post a full report of all the great people I met and things I learned, but I will say that it was just what I needed. I have a few pictures I might post later, but also, too busy this morning to really give [...]

It’s been rather a whirlwind weekend. I got to see Candice Ransom several times, at her signings, and dinner, and sat with her listening to several committees discuss outstanding children’s literature. If you haven’t seen her blog yet, it’s a unique look into the minds of a stuffed elephant and her friend, a tuxedo cat. [...]

The day of travel got off to a rough start with the cab arriving 40 minutes late, which meant that I pretty much missed my flight—or so I thought. Thinking that I would have to take the next flight and not arrive until 10:30 or midnight, I didn’t think to take makeup or clothes out [...]

My friend raisinfish explains today how her writing group has learned to prioritize critiques so that the most important information gets emphasized most to the writer getting critiqued. Check it out:
