Busy! Busy! Busy!

I promise to get back to writing for Picture it and Write short stories soon. There have been several great prompts. This summer I am working on my second children's book. I have the concept written down and the pictures waiting to be drawn, just need another eight hours in the day.

It's been fun learning to draw with Inkscape in my spare time. I have been creating coloring book pages for the wonderful ministry at Stand Strength Team. They have a great anti-bullying message. 

My alter ego, Leann Holland, decided to try throwing her hat into the ring and write a fanfic for Kindle Worlds which seems to be dominating my life right now. Leann Holland is my pen name for my adult (not "Adult" or Mature) maybe a better way to say that is my non-kid and non-YA stories. Check out "her" blog, Leann Holland's Chattering. There are several free short stories for your enjoyment.

Working hard on new products for my Zazzle store, KimIzzyCorner,click on the link to check out all of Loop's products. We have Birthday Invitations to nightlights. As always, please tell everyone to check out my children's book The Case of the Missing Mother. It would be a great Back to School book for Elementary Teacher's and Preschool Teacher's in their classrooms. The pictures have a fall theme and the story theme of Stranger Danger is timeless.

Hope you're enjoying your summer -

Secret:

I still write most of my stories, long and short, on paper.

Book Signing Have Adapted!

As an author and reader, I wondered how the new world of ereaders would effect book signings. We have an answer!

Authors and their fans will still get face time with each other even in this era of the ereader. According to the GalleyCat article below, fans will arrive with ereader in tow and authors will sign them. (Picture in the article below)

The article mentioned the ereaders themselves may not be a good surface for the signatures as they are shiny and wipeable. I liked the suggestion of having the author sign the ereader covers. Keeping a collection of covers when the lifetime of the ereader has expired.

 Society amazes me. We have so much technology changing our culture and world. We struggle, debate and adapt hopefully retaining the important aspects in our lives.

Read a book today!
