We're BACK!


We're back ... AND
Henny is announced!

Henny has been announced in Publisher's Weekly!

(click on link and scroll down about half-way to "Rights Report")

Henny and I have been working our little fingers to the bone for the last 5 weeks...getting her all prettied up and ready for her debut!  I just finished the final art, and it is now in the uber-capable hands of the amazing folks at Simon & Schuster's Paula Wiseman Books.  You'll have to hold your breath a little longer, though-- Henny's on the docket for release in the early spring of 2014.  Hmmmm...meanwhile, I feel another story coming on ;)

I've missed you all, and am looking forward to doing some massive catch-up on your blogs!
I'm SO excited !
Henny RULES :) ;)

P.S. Henny sends hugs to my fabulous agent, Joanna Volpe of New Leaf Literary & Media
in New York!

      Hey, Laura! Well, since little Henny is barely grown up, I tend to call her "Miss."

    Gosh, I may just BUY this book, and I haven't bought a book since the Clinton administration. Looking forward to reading about my favorite hen. There's nothing paltry about this poultry news. That's something to cluck about.
