This blog evolved from the publication of my first novel, THE BEEF PRINCESS OF PRACTICAL COUNTY.  It’s a middle grade novel for readers age 9 to adult.   It was released in hardcover in April 2009 by Delacorte Press, an imprint of Random House Children’s Books.  The paperback release is set for Summer 2010. 

I needed a place to talk to my readers and to post random thoughts.  So, here I am.  Just me.  And , if you’re reading this, then you too!  If you’ve read THE BEEF PRINCESS OF PRACTICAL COUNTY, drop me a line.  If you haven’t, then skeedaddle on out to your local library!  You won’t regret spending some time on the farm.
