GINORMOUS NEWS!
Bless Your Heart,
Dr. Edward Hallowell!
DRT Press and I are thrilled to announce that everyone’s favorite ADHD expert, Dr. Edward Hallowell, will write the introduction for our upcoming anthology of parents’ personal essays, Bless Your Heart. Hallowell, a renowned psychiatrist, is the bestselling author of 16 books, including ADHD classics Driven to Distraction and Delivered from Distraction, and the newer, inspiration-filled Super Parenting for ADD.
Hallowell’s involvement takes Bless Your Heart one giant leap toward becoming what we dream it will be—a source of affirmation and inspiration to parents raising kids who make it a challenge to stay one step ahead of the game.
Call for Submissions
I've teamed up with Adrienne Ehlert Bashista of DRT Press to compile and edit a book of personal essays written by parents of kids with ADHD and other conditions (or quirks!) that lead to challenging behaviors.
Writers, bloggers, parents--follow this link to our Call for Submissions.
Publishing news!
Two articles that I wrote have been published in a new American Library Association book:
Writing and Publishing: The Librarian's Handbook

The book, edited by Carol Smallwood, was released in November, 2009. It's available for purchase on Amazon.com or through the ALA website.
The book was the subject of a feature article (see page 54) in the June/July 2009 issue of American Libraries magazine.
New posts 3-5 times each week!
