I recently did an interview with WritingWorkshops.com, where I talked about some of my favorite writing resources, the best writing advice I ever got, and what picture book writers can expect from my upcoming online Picture Book Revision workshop.

Laundry Love Storytime Tomorrow on Instagram

Resources for Teachers and Librarians, The Runaway Shirt, Upcoming events

It is a truth universally acknowledged that doing laundry is not fun – unless you have a little one around to make it into a game, or really cool tools to make it easier.  I have long been a fan of the SmartKlean Laundry Ball, a mineral-based cleaner that effectively washes 365 loads of fabrics without harsh chemicals, soap or detergent. So I was delighted when SmartKlean invited me to take over their Instagram feed for a storytime celebrating laundry fun with The Runaway Shirt! Join me on Thursday, September 10 at 11 AM Eastern for a Laundry Love Storytime!
