NAIWE interview

Jim and I had a lovely interview yesterday with Janice Campbell, director of the National Association of Independent Writers and Editors and recommend checking out this organization for membership and free information. Our interview about publishing will also be posted there.

Networking is an essential part of success. Tabby House is also members of IBPA and FPA and other groups. Even with seven children's books doing very well, we always are able to learn something from the experiences of others in the field.

Sugar saw red-headed woodpeckers on a dogwood tree in her backyard today. One was a male parent feeding a youngster. That was a new nature treat, she told us.

NAIWE

In other news, Bailey saw a deer standing next to Sugar's asparagus patch last Saturday, in the middle of the day. She was afraid the doe was planning to have asparagus for lunch, so she shouted, "What do you think you're doing?" Bailey said the deer just stared at her. So Bailey went out the screen door and walked pretty close before the deer decided to run into the woods. She also saw a family of skunks walking across the road. The mother and babies walked so closely together that they looked like one big black and white ball of fur.
